Multidisciplinary artist, Temiloluwa Coker was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria and now resides in Dallas, Texas with his wife, Afritina Coker. His mix of vibrant colors and textures come from his upbringing in Nigeria as well as his love for the African Diaspora. His style focuses on evoking emotion through color, patterns and storytelling. He is an Adobe Creative Resident Alumni (2018-2019) and currently co-runs a creative studio, COKER STUDIO.
“I come from a very cultural background. I was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria. My dad is Yoruba and my mom is Igara. Both cultures have vibrant colors, patterns, and different styles. I love these things about my culture and I wanted to bring into the work I do. I also love using black and white images to help make the colors stand out. I want to use color to bring focus to the subjects.”
