Abdulazeez Ganiyat Abosede is a visual artist based in Lagos, Nigeria. She graduated with a National Diploma from the prestigious Yaba college of technology in 2017 and went on to earn a Higher National Diploma in the same school in 2021.
Ganiyat explores a diversity of media spanning pastels, graphites, charcoal, watercolors, acrylics, and oils (being her most favored). In her recent works, she incorporates a distinctive floral motif - believed to have a deep connection with her childhood experiences in her portraits. This reoccurring phenomenon in her work is called jatropha multifida ( coral plant). The plants are known to have many healing properties, some of which she had benefited from while growing up.
Ganiyat believes that every part of the body needs healing, being poor or rich, white skin or black skin, every mankind yearns for healing, even the animals, in a way or another. She affirms that God created all plants for human and animal benefit. And he had also concealed in them diverse healing properties right before the existence of drugs and injections. Her works have been collected both locally and internationally.
