Sejiro Avoseh
Sejiro Avoseh is a Nigerian-born contemporary artist whose practice unfolds as a deeply
layered visual autobiography. His paintings assemble fragmented figures within evocative,
atmospheric compositions, exploring themes of migration, identity, memory, and the
psychological weight of displacement. His formal artistic education includes foundational
studies in Painting at Lagos State Polytechnic and a Master of Fine Arts from the University for
the Creative Arts, Canterbury.
Based in the Essex, U.K., Sejiro reflects on his heritage while navigating the dual landscapes of
belonging and alienation, an ongoing journey that threads personal memory with collective
experience. Currently at Tracey Emin’s Victoria House Residency in Margate, he allows space
and form to guide his mark-making, developing and expanding his visual narrative within a
professional artistic landscape.
Avoseh’s work has exhibited across Cities including New York, Miami, Lagos, Dubai,
Johannesburg, and Margate, U.K.
