Presentation

Obeka Simon Edoh is a full-time studio painter based in Abuja, Nigeria. He is a graduate of Ahmadu Bello University Zaria where he studied Fine Art and majored in painting. He was among the top 25 artists in the ‘’Life in My City Art Festival’’ competition in 2019 in Nigeria and also among the 10 finalists in the ‘’Next Of kin Annual Juried Art Exhibition And Competition’’ in 2022 organized by Thought Pyramid Art Center, Lagos and also participated in a group exhibition titled ‘’No Pain No Gain’’ organized by Vivid ExclsiveArt Gallery in 2022.

 

My fascination and obsession with the human figure can not be overly emphasized. Sometimes, I find myself spending countless hours looking at the human face. In my paintings, I hope to communicate with my viewer's life experiences and stories attached to every face I paint and each face tells a different and unique story These life experiences and stories are sometimes beautiful, joyful, sad, provoking, and educating.
