About the Item

Shipping Procedure Ships in a well-protected tube from Nigeria This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (Issued by the Gallery) About Artist Olalekan Adeyemi [B.1988] hail from Osun State, Nigeria. He is a painter of visually engaging and photo-surrealistic paintings. He infuses a strong socio-cultural interpretation into his strict patience in searching for an aesthetic representation and an avenue to extract the best of his creativity. He seeks to illustrate more than what meets the eye, which inspires his choice of a dynamic rendition style to captivate viewers to look more than once but repeatedly and with a new find at each encounter... He strongly perceives the affairs of life as a peeling-off process; just as the skin is shed, first comes the loss of hold to the former ground, then follows the cracking or peeling off, which leaves suggestive evidence of time for every reason. This conscious experience transcends any time, present or past. "I want my works to be timeless and still have relative experience when encountered because just as time goes on, life goes on". He is a Fine and Applied Arts graduate and holds a B. Tech (Hons.) from the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso. He has participated in numerous group exhibitions in Nigeria and his work is found in many private collections in Nigeria and abroad with an annual feature in the October Rain exhibition of the Lagos state chapter of the Society of Nigerian Artists (SNA). Winner of the Next of Kin (Series 4, 2022), an annual juried competition.
