Funmilola ‘Ajike’ Adeseun is an architect and mixed-media artist with a maximalist style.
A Nigerian living and working in the Canadian diaspora, her craft centers on exploring the distinct opulence, kinship, and robust community-spirit of her Yoruba culture and heritage, aiming first to delight, and then to motivate. She weaves together her worlds of Art and Architecture in drawing, painting and sculpture to illustrate a sense of movement and dynamism inherent to the vibrance of an environment. She crafts a world and legacy built on joy, not just as a fleeting personal emotion but as a necessary way of being.
