Who I Am (Eninmojé)
Gbenga Joseph Adeku
£1,200
Description
Eninmojé is a Yoruba sentence (Eni tí mojé) that has been coined into a name meaning "Who I Am." I do believe human life is similar to that of a marine ecosystem. The peculiarities of one organism benefit all yet separate it from others: The crab, Jellyfish, and corals are all dependent on each other. I grew up in a highly athletic community. You're not really man-enough if you can't play football or wrestle. I did neither. All I knew was to draw; I had no sport I could compete in at school. I felt terribly nerdy then; now I appreciate having to draw a lot early in life and not being distracted. I run for workouts now, but I'm sure I still won't win a competition. Embracing my uniqueness has also helped me properly appreciate others.
Sustainability is at the core of what I create. This artwork has been created using plastic waste, mainly PET bottles which had been discarded.

About the artist
Gbenga Joseph Adeku
North Yorkshire, United KingdomGbenga Joseph Adeku
North Yorkshire, United KingdomI have been working as a sculptor and upcycle artist for nearly a decade, turning discarded plastic and found materials into meaningful sculptures that carry my personal reflection. My work is inspired by a deep love for humanity and the sacredness of nature. Using simple symbols like ants to represent land life and fish for aquatic life, their stories speaking to many human truths.
