A Tale Of Two Palettes

Akinbanji Osanyemi and Eyituoyomi Martins Ewetan, A Tale of Two Palettes brings together two artists working in opposing chromatic languages.

Akinbanji Osanyemi’s grayscale palette recalls the blurred, monochrome vision of a newborn. Through subtle manipulations of light and dark, his figurative works convey human emotions, challenges, and lived experiences.

Eyituoyomi Martins Ewetan answers in full chroma. His vibrant, chromatic rendering mirrors the developed colour perception of maturity — a visual spectrum rooted in childhood dreams, aspirations, and present-day realities.

One speaks in shadow and light, the other in colour and fullness. Together, they present two distinct ways of seeing, feeling, and narrating the world.
