The prestigious international artist based in Lagos Nigeria. Hold a Higher National diploma in sculpture from the school of art and design Auchi Polytechnic Edo State Nigeria.

He is a multi dimensional artist with huge interest in both recycling and repurposed materials as visible in his highly experimental yet classical, conceptual, contemporary and in recent times surrealistic works. Highly known for the use of cutleries in creating life size sculptures of varied tactile and detailed impressions. He has over the years explored the materials and established it as not just a material that can be an ‘extra’ or support material l but a definite medium in sculpture. His approach are a meticulous fabrication that involve free-flow construction of his works without visible amateur or support, some with and others what he describe as through the use of  pre cast approach.

His take on art as not just a skill, but a sure means of communication is expressed in his depth of concept that explores human experiences, the concept of power and dominance, the idea of racial identity, the place of culture and society in documenting human history, his exploration of man as a spiritual entity and metaphysical content are prominent in his works in the past years.
