About Artist
Adebayo Taiwo, a native of Kwara State, Nigeria, was born and raised in Oyo, Oyo State. His artistic journey began during his junior school years when he applied for a workshop at Femo Art Studio in Oyo town. Since then, he has relentlessly pursued his lifelong dream of becoming an artist, fueled by passion and determination. After some years of workshop and mentorship at Femo Art Studio, Adebayo continued to work from home and now he's currently studying to acquire his bachelor's degree programme in fine art at the prestigious Ahmadu Bello University Zaria.
Artist Statement
My art serves as a window into the stories that define us—the memories that linger and the moments that shape our existence. With each brushstroke of acrylic and oil, I paint the highs and lows of our shared human experience. But it's not just about the visible canvas; it's about the abstract backgrounds—the chaos and calm, the noise and silence—that weave the fabric of our lives. These backgrounds are more than mere splashes of colour; they represent the unseen world behind our stories — a world filled with love, struggle, and our deep connection to nature. When you stand before my canvases, you're invited to explore your journey mirrored in colours and shapes. My mix of materials—from the smoothness of oil to the texture of acrylics—symbolizes the resilience and strength I carry within, even when faced with life's challenges.
Each painting becomes an open door, inviting you to step in and discover your narrative within the vibrant hues and intricate patterns.

"Serenity" is an enchanting artwork that immediately captures the viewer's attention. The focal point is a woman, portrayed with grace and elegance. Oladapo's attention to detail brings the subject to life, with each brushstroke conveying a sense of peace and serenity.
The woman's calm expression exudes tranquility as if she has discovered a profound inner stillness. Her eyes reflect a sense of contentment and acceptance, inviting viewers to join her in a world of peace and joy. The artist's careful use of color and light further enhances the soothing atmosphere, creating a sense of harmony and balance within the artwork.
"Serenity" embodies the idea that every moment of our lives can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity, regardless of external circumstances. The artwork encourages viewers to embrace the present moment, finding solace and happiness in the simple pleasures of life.
The woman depicted in the artwork serves as a symbol of inner strength and resilience. Her serene expression represents an inner journey, a state of mind that can be achieved through mindfulness and self-reflection. She invites viewers to let go of worries, anxieties, and the constant pursuit of external validation, and instead find tranquility within themselves.
The emphasis on "every breath we take, every step we make" underscores the notion that serenity is not confined to a specific time or place. It is a mindset that can be cultivated in each moment, whether we are walking in nature, engaging in daily tasks, or simply pausing to take a deep breath. The artwork encourages viewers to approach life with mindfulness and to find joy in the present moment.

"Innocence" is a captivating artwork that evokes a sense of empathy and reflection. The central figure, a woman, stands as a representation of someone who has been wrongly accused and unfairly painted with guilt. Oladapo's skilled brushwork brings forth the emotions of sorrow, pain, and resilience, creating a visually striking piece.
The woman's expression carries a mix of sadness and determination, reflecting the weight of the false accusations. The use of vibrant red in the painting symbolizes the intense emotions and turmoil she has experienced. The artist's attention to detail, particularly in capturing the subtle nuances of her facial expression, adds depth and authenticity to the artwork.
"Innocence" highlights the profound impact that false accusations can have on an individual's life and psyche. The emphasis on being "painted red" with lies alludes to the damaging effect of baseless accusations, which can tarnish one's reputation and cause immense pain.
The artwork also emphasizes the resilience and strength required to maintain one's truth in the face of adversity. The woman's unwavering gaze and the determination in her expression portray her refusal to be defined by false accusations. She stands as a symbol of the human spirit's ability to rise above injustice and assert one's innocence.
Through "Innocence," Oladapo reminds us of the importance of embracing our authenticity and standing firm in our truth, even when faced with unfounded allegations. It urges viewers to question the validity of accusations and to seek justice and understanding, both for themselves and others who may have experienced similar hardships.
