“Pleaded to be loved” — Yoruba

Damola Ayegbayo is a passionate and experienced visual artist with a deep-rooted history in the arts and crafts industry. His vibrant style breathes life into portraits and compositions through colour, texture, and story — each piece an emotional conversation.

His inspiration flows from his grandfather — a renowned painter, sculptor, and ceramist — whose legacy now echoes through Damola's evolving work across canvas and live performance.

Education: Bachelor's in Education, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
