About Debayo Desalu
Biography
With a lifelong interest in the bottomless wells that are science and art, this Nigerian-Irish artist maintained these seemingly opposite interests. While appreciating the cleverness of nature’s rules in his painting he indulges in art’s ability to highlight, bend or break them.
Through abstraction, Debayo’s main means of artistic expression, he revels in trying to create pieces of visual poetry, expressing ideas/emotions that almost always concern the human experience, an experience we all share.
Much like a still life acts to show the beauty of the mundane or overlooked items, most of my abstract work tries to isolate a state of mind and underlines it, in hopes that it may resonate in the viewer.
