Aduni (Sweet to Have), 2023
Rotimi Godwin is a visual artist, painter and educator from Ekiti state, Nigeria. He was born in Lagos, in 1995 before moving to the western part of the country where he hails from now. The formative years he spent as a child and movement from one part of Nigeria to the other has deeply impacted his works to date. He works across oil, Acrylic and mixed media. With figures gently placed in their intimate spaces, his work explores the themes of solitude, memorial, identity, popular culture and cultural awareness.
