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 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).
