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.
