Adesina
Adesina is sculpture artist based in Los Angeles. She has been creating figurative sculptures for over 13 years, and as such, has personally been transformed through the creation of art. Adesina focuses on conceptualizing family, community, and emotional dynamics with a goal of developing emotional awareness.
For Adesina, clay sculpture is a metaphor for life. Inner struggles become concept sculptures become symbols, coded messages that personify strength. Clay is unpredictable and unapologetic. It doesn’t forget its folds, it explodes, cracks, and morphs under fire. It survives this process and emerges resilient. Its imperfect knicks and scars are markers of a unique journey from mold to set. Her sculptures are manifestations of emotional vulnerability and patience. The heart of each piece connected by the thread of strength guided by instinct. Pyramids and circles become symbols of self-love and direction. Antelopes become reminders to learn and love. For each collector, the Adesina sculpture will hold its own meaning and representation. Still, the intentions behind each Adesina piece, from small to full scale busts each represent the final stage of vulnerability.
