About Artist
Desmond Akindoju, born in 2001 and hailing from Ondo state, Nigeria, is a talented abstract-realism artist. Despite being an early career artist, his work reflects a deep understanding of the persistence of childhood memories in one's life. Desmond draws on fragments from his own lived experiences and missed opportunities during his early years to create art that is both striking and evocative.
Desmond's artistic journey began during his formative years in the lush flora belt of the Ondo countryside, in South-West Nigeria. The peaceful and serene environment, coupled with the rich vegetation and tropical flowers, provided him with ample inspiration. He has since sought to express the essence of these natural elements through the use of leaf patterns on his subjects' skin in his paintings. Having grown up with a deep appreciation for the flora and fauna around him, he sees his art as a means of reconnecting with nature and expressing its beauty in a unique and captivating way.
Desmond works primarily with acrylic on canvas, and his paintings are marked by the calm and peaceful personalities of his figures. His training from a humble background has imbued him with a sense of tranquility, which he seeks to convey through his art. His figures are often depicted in serene poses, with stylish hairstyles that exude confidence and elegance.
Desmond's art is a reflection of his belief that art can be used to address the problems that affect both him and humanity. His subject matter is alluring, stunning, and vibrant, and he strives to convey these qualities through both African and Western perspectives. He hopes to challenge perceptions about how we should live, dress, and behave, while also showcasing the beauty and diversity of our world.
Artist Statement
I see art as a capable way of addressing problems affecting myself and humanity. The subject matter of my work is alluring, stunning, and vibrant. I also endeavor to convey them in both African and Western reality which addresses their perception of how they should live, dress, or behave.

Your purpose is to simply exist, without identifying as something specific. The ultimate truth is encapsulated in the phrase 'I am that I am'. The path to realizing this truth is elegantly simple: just 'Be still'. Stillness means letting go of your ego and the labels you've assigned yourself. Any definition or identity you cling to is a source of suffering. Release your attachment to thinking 'I am this' or 'I am that'. To discover your true nature, all you need to do is quiet your mind and be present.
