Kainebi Osahenye

"I am interested in the blend of abstraction and figuration. With this synchronisation, I attempt to investigate light and dark interplay. With painting, I can allow the interruptions of light to disrupt dark spaces or situations, enabling the canvas to breathe." - Kainebi Osahenye
