About the Item
I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That's what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that's from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter.

Joy Eyitayo Alagbe Is a mixed media artist based in Ibadan, Nigeria. He was Born on June 14, 1997, in Ogbomoso, Oyo State Nigeria. Art has always been part of Eyitayo’s life as he draws inspiration from the life experiences of the people surrounding him and the way we are as African. After studying at Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, where he gained an NCE certificate in Fine and Applied art, Eyitayo Alagbe decided to follow his desire to become an artist. Intrigued by the mysteries of the human figure as a unique work of nature, he uses it to create works that speak to subjects he feels are neglected or not spoken about in Nigeria. Eyitayo works in many artistic mediums but has a preference for Charcoal pencil and acrylic on paper and canvas, mixing charcoal and acrylic within a single composition because of its versatility and texture. He devotes his time in the studio to the study of his artistic technique and the search for continuous improvement of his expressive capabilities. Eyitayo’s art speaks about black power, hope, joy, pain, sociopolitical issues, and the way we are as African Eyitayo participated in several group exhibitions both physical and virtual exhibitions which allows him to showcase his works to the world (Ibadan Arnheim Collections Art exhibition 2021), (Open Windows by VAV Art gallery 2021). And had collectors in the US and Mexico
