Soji has forged a distinctive impasto style, through radical experimentation with materials and technique, with subjects in his paintings appearing involved, deconstructed and atimes, even afflicted, tortured and at other times brazen and confident.
Soji Adesina, born in Lagos in 1981 is an artist whose primary mode of expression includes Painting, Drawings and Installations. He is a graduate of Yaba College of Technology, Lagos, Nigeria.
Soji has forged a distinctive impasto style, through radical experimentation with materials and technique, with subjects in his paintings appearing involved, deconstructed and atimes, even afflicted, tortured and at other times brazen and confident.
Central to Soji Adesina's work is a fascination with memory, visualization, observation, language, identity, globalization, sovereignty and conflict. He also attempts to make gritty sense, through the use of layered ironic humor, puns, metaphors and paradoxes of how globalization and international dynamics in conflict shape radicalization, the state, migration and sexuality.
His works have been collected by private individuals, art enthusiasts and corporate organizations both in Nigeria and abroad. Soji has participated in several group exhibitions.
