Fadahunsi Akintomiwa Joseph

Fadahunsi Akintomiwa Joseph ( also known as Orthodox arts ) is a contemporary Nigerian visual artist and painter born in 2001. At the heart of his practice is a dedicated commitment to Black Art—specifically exploring individuality in Black Arts through the use of stripes.

Working from his studio in Nigeria, he uses bold vertical lines as a signature visual element to represent cadence, structure, and the unique rhythms of Black identity. For him, Black Art is not merely an aesthetic choice; it is a vital vehicle for celebrating human dignity, cultural heritage, and personal expression.

Early Development: Developed his artistic practice through years of drawing, painting, and independent creative exploration.

• Formal Studies: Earned an HND in Fine Art from Adeseun Ogundoyin Polytechnic, Eruwa, Oyo State, Nigeria.

Experience: Completed practical studio training at Olatunji Gbega Aguda Art Studio and Gallery, where he further developed his skills in painting, drawing, studio practice, and contemporary figurative art.

Exhibition: His works are featured, exhibited, and listed across platforms including Artsy, Saatchi Art, and Instagram through his artistic platform, Orthodox Arts.
