About Artist Tosin Ogunniyi is a multidisciplinary artist from Eruwa, Oyo state, Nigeria. He embarked on his artistic journey by obtaining a National Diploma in Fine Art from The Ibarapa Polytechnic, Eruwa, in 2016/2018. His exposure to the realm of art continued with an impactful industrial training at Oluwole Omofemi's painting studio in Ibadan, where he absorbed influences from the master's distinctive artistic style during 2018/2019. Currently pursuing his Bachelor's Degree at the University of Lagos, Nigeria, Tosin's artistic endeavours are rooted in providing a unique narrative that illuminates the diverse experiences, challenges, and triumphs of individuals in his society. Raised predominantly by his mother, a single parent who faced the challenges of life after losing her husband, Tosin draws inspiration from the bittersweet essence of life. His art captures the essence of respecting feminine figures in society and the broader black community. Merging charcoal and acrylics (mixed media), he skillfully represents the black and conceptual essence in his work. With themes centred around love, hope, faith, romance, body positivity, and encouragement for kindness, Tosin's art aims to provide a platform for voices that may be underrepresented or marginalized. Through his meticulous observation of individuals, he emphasizes the importance of fairness and equality, challenging beliefs of superiority. Oluwatosin's compelling works have found a space in private collections both at home and abroad.
