ART OF OUr oRiGINS

unique African art prints and homewares inspired by and celebrating Nigerian Yoruba mythology

Femi Ajayi

Femi Ayaji is a fine and digital artist and designer based in Sussex in the UK, having spent formative years in London and Lagos, Nigeria.

His work is inspired by the symbolic and mythological stories of the Orisha’s – the names for deities following the IFA pathway of spirituality for the Nigerian Yoruba people.

Femi’s collections represent his journey of reconnection with the Yoruba Orishas and which enables us all, regardless of background, colour or religion, to engage with Yoruba spirituality and culture as a means of celebrating African pride and identity, knowledge and history.

He translates his drawings and paintings into unique and intricate digital art prints and homewares.

Makes for a nice addition to my living space. As a British Nigerian, it’s nice to be able to decorate my home with some patterns from the motherland. And great customer service from Femi, he is very responsive and accommodating to any requests buyers might have, from my experience 🙂
