ABOUT

Anthony O. Akinbola (b. 1991 Columbia, MO) is a Nigerian-American interdisciplinary artist who employs the ready made motif in relation to the human experience and history. Working with sculpture, performative and text-based works Akinbola is attuned to the void between artistic intention and the viewer’s own comprehension, and he transforms this chasm into a discourse of sorts, using it as a source of creative energy.
