About the Speaker

Bamisile Fadimu is an emerging sculptor and fresh graduate from the University of Port Harcourt with a specialization in sculpture. Based in Osogbo in Osun State, Bamisile is renowned for his experimental approach to scrap metal that transforms discarded materials into powerful artistic statements. With his academic foundation and passion for sculptural expression, Bamisile has developed a distinctive artistic style characterized by massive works constructed from reclaimed metal, emphasizing the inherent beauty found in discarded materials. His sculptural pieces explore themes of environmental consciousness, transformation, and nature's resilience through bold, large-scale installations that reveal beauty in what society considers rubbish. Bamisile continues to evolve his practice, demonstrating how waste materials can be reimagined into compelling artistic narratives that celebrate nature's enduring beauty. Many of his works reflect Yoruba themes and folklores adapted from his local environment.
