About the Item

Affen Segun was born in 1993 in Lagos, Nigeria. A native of Bayelsa State, he discovered his love for art at a young age, and later got enrolled in a roadside art shop to start to hone his skills. Affen is a contemporary artist who is motivated by Black culture and sees Black culture, his culture, as a source of inspiration for his art. His passion for creating portraits brought to life through the use of acrylic hues and African patterned fabrics and his ability to capture emotions on the face of his muses has attracted a large audience for his works. Affen has created paintings for several Nigeran celebrities such as Mayorkun, Skiibii, Zlatan, Davido, Wizkid and others. Affen is an artist on the rise and has been internationally recognized and awarded for his talent.

  • "Lean on Me" Acrylic painting of two black women with long braids, red, purple
    Located in Edgartown, MA
