Born in Lagos, Nigeria.
Adebiyi, also known as "Artofpath": a creative vision founded in dedication to facilitating healing through the arts, is an interdisciplinary artist working in painting and sound poetry in New England, USA. She obtained her Bachelors at the University of Rhode Island, and completed separate degrees in both Fine Arts and Medical Laboratory Sciences. She later went on to complete her MFA in Painting at the University of Massachussets Dartmouth.
Adebiyi's work reveals a commitment to the distinctive capacity of painting to address human identity and psychological wellness, which she explores in connection to her Christian faith and cultural identity. Though largely figurative, her paintings engage not just the body, but the soul and the spirit, probing the mind, whilst elucidating the mortal and fallen nature of mankind.
Adebiyi is moved by personal and relational life subjects whose stories drive her investigations of the body and the mind. The figures in her work traverse past and present realities, emerging across the span of early childhood or adulthood, whose varied states create room for the juxtaposition of emotional expressivity and identity experienced at the distinct stages of life.
Through a congruent co-establishment with sound poetry and immersive light installations, her paintings transgress the two dimensional plane, alluring viewer connection amidst intimate spaces, whilst inspiring trust and inner dialogue. Comprehensively, her creations foster introspective reflection, engaging the mind on the universality of human suffering and the endurance of hope, participating in the larger salient conversation regarding psychological wellness and healing.
