Born in the southwestern city of Lagos, Daniel Gbenga Orimoloye is an award-winning Nigerian artist, based in London, who works with several paint mediums including oil, watercolour and acrylic. Through these mediums, Orimoloye uses his artwork and artistic freedom of expression as a means to explore various socio-cultural features throughout the African continent

About his work, Orimoloye says,

“We must look at concepts, ideas and avenues by which we can change our reality. We must create instances with which to empower the society…My artistic mission is to portray and advocate through allegorical representation and through relationships with organisations committed to working for humanity like Freedom Foundation, a lively and “colourful” hope.”
