While experimenting with different mediums and improving his technique, Agoreyo Oke has developed a flair for paper collage paintings. With the exception of his majestic untitled collage depicting the mask of warrior Queen Idia of the Benin Kingdom, his works use paintings as a base for these incredibly detailed, colorful paper mosaics. Through the vibrant characters and textured settings in each piece, we are introduced to the artist’s rich culture and surroundings.

21st Century

A thought provoking series of illustrations titled ” 21st Century” that focuses on the Youth and Social Media by Jeffrey Otieno.

Here his synopsis, “He named this project ’21st Century’ because these are things that are currently happening in this era. Our generation (youth) is so obsessed with social media. Everybody wants a certain life style, fame, money. Many are lost in drugs, alcohol and crime chasing that cool life “swaag” and fast money, and really don’t take time to build their lives and careers. Nobody wants to work and endure for success”

Quite Apt.
