Against the odds Painting

Gbemileke’s studio practice revolves on ranging issues from solitude to the complexity of heritage. 
“Connecting with people’s emotions and minds as a visual artist is dutiful, invoking the elements through engaging and provocative representations is fundamental to human existence and development.” 
His series titled Dementia gives an expository about agoraphobic inclination of the artist and also convey sense of being suspended in time and space exploring menace between the physical and mental state. 
Gbemileke works is described as expressionist paintings with fewer recent works leaning towards abstract expressionism. His primary medium is acrylic with juxtaposition of oil pastel and charcoal to strike textural harmonies. “My art is incomplete without the use of oil pastel and charcoal, that gives nostalgic bring-back of my childhood where I used burnt wood and crayons for my drawings. 
 Gbemileke currently lives and works in Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria.
