Joseph Obanubi is a talented Nigerian artist who has taken the art world by storm with his innovative and captivating digital collages. With a passion for African graphic art and a keen eye for detail, Obanubi has created a unique style that combines traditional techniques with modern technology. His work showcases the beauty and diversity of African culture, while also pushing the boundaries of experimentation and motion graphics.
We will explore the brilliance of Joseph Obanubiโs art and the impact he is making in the world of digital collage. Among these are graphic and visual design, art direction, and art education. A hallmark of Obanubiโs practice is his ability to seamlessly integrate digital and tactile elements through experimentation, with a focus on striking a harmonious balance between visual and spatial design.
Obanubiโs practice is constructed out of three main ideologies: survival, interest, and exploration. My work explores the relationship between identity, fantasy, play, technologies, and globalization. He describes hisย art making practice as a visual bricolage โ a (re)construct of fragments found in everyday experiences taken from their original context into a new one. His creative ideology stems from concepts of delusion, black speculative art, african Futurism, and experimentation, as I am attracted to in-between states as opposed to directness. Research methods include physical and digital image making techniques, photographing, drawing, collaging, reading, traveling, observation, interview, experiments, documentary, and movies.ย
