About The Artwork

It wasn't the valley of death, I was walking in It was the valley of confusion for many years Different religions, different beliefs Undermining my culture Looking down upon my tradition Making fun of my language Telling my children, they have no God Finally I can tell them about our believes. At the top of the mountain here I come to make a sacrifice of burnt offering, when No one will undermine my religion nor culture anymore, I was sent from above, to be with the people. Bring them back to what is their own Take them back to the ways Of our forefathers. Finally I can tell generations and generations That we have a God.

My biological name is Tosin Oyeniyi and I’m an ambidextrous Artist, Art enthusiast, archivist, antiquarian and a seasoned Art educator cum trainer who hails from Ogbomoso, Oyo State, Nigeria where I spent my early-childhood and teenage years before migrating to other parts of the most populous west African country. Speaking in generic terms and by training, I’m a graphic Artist but if I’m asked to speak in specific terms, I’d say I’m a Print-maker with special interest in LINOCUT. As a solo art entrepreneur, my silky, multidimensional and unorthodox engraved prints can be described as an even blend of naturalism and post-expressionism as I colorfully, yet indigenously share the rich and vast African beauty, stories, sceneries and culture with the rest of the world. Notably, my craft did not explode after bagging my 1st Degree from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University where I studied Fine and Applied Arts and graduated as a Graphic specialist. As good and profitable as that experience was, my Art essentially began to find expression after a period of silent dogged and unflinching efforts at my studio and much of the charming works you see today are actually products of self-education. Coupling modern education with being an intrinsic Artist from a modest background makes my ethos relatable, in that it exhibits real life situations of real Black people Professionally, I have been practicing my art since 2015 and currently resides in Ibadan where I produce irresistible prints that are in circulation all over the world through local and international Art collectors.

Artist’s statement Through Art, I specifically seek to exhibit, project and export the rich, enormous and vastly undermined African culture and her custom to the rest of the world. While unravelling the blacks under- appreciated pasts, I also narrate her unscripted socio-economic stages of developments unapologetically.
