Ed Adegoke

Lives and works in Nigeria

Ed Adegoke is a contemporary painter working in mixed media—acrylics, spray paint, gold leaf, and Kraft paper on canvas—with a focus on domestic life, resilience, and the bonds between mothers and children.

His Rekindling Hope series uses bold color, pattern, and expressive drip passages to explore how single mothers navigate judgment, economic pressure, and the need for community support across Black communities in Africa and the diaspora.
