Eat pray love Painting

Kalejaiye Ifeoluwa is a self-taught contemporary Nigerian visual artist based in Southwest Nigeria, who started off by drawing commissioned pencil portraits , but with an ardent desire to wanting to do more by enacting his creativity to address socio- cultural realities. His intention of creating art is to portray the tussle and ordeal of the typical black people as a product of their society, a story he is eager and inspired to relay until it's no longer needed be told, of which such expectation is unarguably a castle in the air. Ifeoluwa strongly believes his art can spur a social change and help people conceptualize their space by looking inward to realize how unique they are amid their struggles while holding the belief that we all have a common ground. Working as a mixed media artist mainly with charcoal and acrylics, his art process is drawing with layers of charcoal on canvas while carving into the skin to depict our vulnerabilities with harmonious colors.
