AKINGBADE ADENIYI
Since he was little, Akingbade has been passionate about art. He has always liked sculptures, paintings, drawings and other visual arts possibilities. Dyslexia made him a slow student and considered one of the worst in the class, but when he entered art training, he became a reference, always being one of the best students. He brought experience with the difficulty of reading and writing to his art through patience in working out the details of his works.

DYSLEXIC THINKING
The work establishes tensions between two brains and a book. The question posed is in the dimension of thinking versus reading, an activity that is difficult for dyslexics and puts them outside traditional educational standards. The central issue is to discuss how different capabilities, which go beyond print culture, are not generally absorbed by society. Seeing the mind as bigger than a publication in the way the system is used to encourages us to take a different look at those who deviate from the expected and considered traditional standards.
