Closet 001 Photograph - Limited Edition of 7

Aderemi Adegbite is an artist-curator and multidisciplinary artist. He is the founder and artistic director of the Vernacular Art-space Laboratory, an artist initiative for artist-run projects. Recently, he created the Tutùọlá Institute, conceptualized as an alternative artistic and cultural platform for critical reflection and practices in our postcolonial world. His current artistic focus questions individual realities and truth(s) that stretch across the societal fabric as constants for an elastic socio-system. He is concerned about how past experiences (agonies, joys, businesses, travels and religious beliefs) of being part of a family reshape the individual’s present conditions and serve as catalysts for “the” surrealistic future. The psychological effect of the idea of “one for all, all for one,” is at the centre of his new interventions through social art, installation, multimedia, photography and video art.
