OLUWASEYI ALABI
(b. 1986), is a self-thought artist who started drawing at the age of six, he uses his art to promote African heritage, culture, and tradition.
Growing up he was always fascinated by the simplicity of a pencil and how it is one of the most basic of tools, and yet it can be used to create images of great complexity and depth.
Sheyi Alabi's artworks are inspired by the lost narratives of the old, their innocence, their child-presence fused with African heritage, culture, and tradition. His skill is evident in his ability to effortlessly portray African children, all powerful and visibly present, with a genre of art that is painstakingly detailed and time conscious, called” HYPERREALISM” Africanism central to the Artist's oeuvre, Sheyi Alabi has succeeded in not only portraying the young as older generations, but also a showcase of the beauty hidden in Africanism.
