Sejiro Avoseh

Sejiro Avoseh (born 1990) is a visual artist based in Essex, United Kingdom]. A painter best known for his signature fusion of abstracted human figures and automobile parts using painting and collaging techniques, Sejiro makes his painted montages from cut-out magazines and newspapers. Sejiro's works are autobiographical, lending critical voices on the poor fate of the indigent underclass in his society, and on the highhandedness and abuse of power by public servants and elected officials. In 2018, he was featured in the Financial Times as one of Nigeria's promising artists.

Education
Sejiro holds a Higher National Diploma in Creative Arts from Lagos State Polytechnic in Lagos, Nigeria; and a Masters in Fine Art at the University for the Creative Arts, Canterbury, Kent, England.
