About Artist
Oluwaseun Solomon Akinlo is based in Lagos state, Nigeria, and hails from Ondo state. He studied Fine and Applied Arts at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo state. As an experimental artist, Oluwaseun has developed a passion for abstract expressionism and figurative art. His oeuvre encompasses paintings, vitrines, and an array of works on canvas such as drawings, acrylic, collages, and altered photographs. Born out of investigative research and communication he conducts within his community, the end result is an emotional culmination of how their stories project on the emotional state of his mind shared as he listens to their voices.
Oluwaseun’s expressionist style is a visual representation of the human psyche, memories, and emotions through a personal perspective on social, political, and cultural challenges, which confront the viewers with his evocative figures and use of colors. He was influenced by the community of Ajegunle where he grew up and influenced by their social, and cultural lifestyle.
Akinlo had exhibited in several exhibitions and Residency, ‘Our Time In The Sun’ Soto Gallery Lagos Nigeria (2023), ‘The Kids Are Not Alright’ AMG Project Art Gallery (2022 – 2023), Mirror of Emotion (11:11) at Popcentral TV Lagos (2022), 1952Africa Art Residency(2022), TABFamily Exhibition at CoolChange Contemporary Art in Australia (2022), 2nd Experience at The Kokopelli Gallery (2021), Resilience Art Exhibition at National Gallery Enugu (2019), ‘Twilight’ Life In My City Fest at Thought Pyramid Gallery Lagos (2018), Upcoming Art Exhibition Crowne Art Gallery (2018).

Located in Ibadan, Oyo
"Believe" is an original painting created by Eyitayo Alagbe. Eyitayo created "Beleive" with Mixed Media on a Primed canvas of 36W by 36H Inches
Believe is a masterpiece that deserves to be celebrated. It is a powerful artwork that embodies the spirit of hope and faith that we so desperately need in these trying times.
At its core, Believe is a symbol of optimism and perseverance. The artwork features a stunningly intricate image of a young boy, set against a backdrop of calming blue tones, the boy stands tall and proud, representing the resilience and strength that we all possess within us.
The beauty of this artwork lies not only in its design but in its message. Believe is a reminder that we should never give up on our dreams, no matter how impossible they may seem. It encourages us to trust ourselves and to have faith in the path that we have chosen.
It is not just an artist's interpretation of life, it is a positive force that inspires us to look at the world with a new perspective. Believe conveys that life has an amazing power to heal our system and rejuvenate our spirits.
In today's world, where negativity and despair seem to be taking over, Believe is a beacon of hope. Its message is simple yet profound: we are capable of overcoming any obstacle if we believe in ourselves and never give up.
The fact that Believe has managed to touch so many lives is a testament to its worth. It is not just a piece of art, but a timeless masterpiece that has the potential to inspire people for generations to come.
