Ogunbiyi, Temitayo

Born 1984 in Rochester, USA
Lives and works between Lagos, Nigeria, the United States, and Jamaica

Temitayo Ogunbiyi, You will see that the secret of how water entered the coconut will remain even as the water seems to have dried leaked/spoilt, graphite on paper, 2019, 46,5 x 60 cm. Courtesy of 31 Project. 

As a visual artist, Temitayo Ogunbiyi works with a range of media whose possibilities and distortions she explores through installation, sculpture, collage, and drawing. As an artist living between two continents, Ogunbiyi feels it is essential thing is to produce a work that is always connected to the place of creation. From 2016, she focused her practice on drawing, focusing on the mixing of shapes by inventing unexpected fusions between Nigerian hairstyles with geometric lines and botanical elements inspired by old botanical illustrations.  Ogunbiyi’s works have been included in group exhibitions at Tiwani Contemporary, London (2016); Museum of Contemporary Diasporan Art, Lagos (2013); Pulitzer Art Foundation, St. Louis (2012); and Centre for Contemporary Art, Lagos (2012). In 2020, her installation You will play in the every day, was commissioned by the Museo Madre, Naples and several of her drawings have been acquired by the Musée du Quai Branly, Paris.
