Jolaolu Moyosore
Moyosore uses the juxtaposition of culture and social conventions, as well as conflict and resolution, in her art as a way to understand time and routine. His most difficult life experiences, particularly those that relate to various eras in time, space, and memory, serve as the inspiration for his artwork. He communicates himself through paintings by fusing his past and present, using the combination of recognizable yet distant people and locations to remind himself of his beginnings. As a response to the world he envisions, he creates a fictitious and immersive setting by infusing colour into his compositions. He builds a visual language and lexicon to address both personal and socio-political issues by incorporating poetry, metaphor, and symbolism into his works.
