Soji Adesina is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Lagos, Nigeria. As a cross-disciplinary artist, Soji has forged a distinctive impasto style through experimentation and research. In an attempt to narrate themes of identity, globalisation, sovereignty and conflict, he depicts his figures in different states of being; sometimes deconstructed, afflicted and tortured; and other times, brazen and confident.
His works are mostly visualised through memory, observation, language, and personal identity. Adesina uses layers of ironic humour, metaphors and paradoxes in an attempt to dissect how globalisation and international dynamics are directly linked to radicalization, the state and migration.
His pieces have been collected by private individuals, art enthusiasts and corporate organizations both in Nigeria and Internationally.
