Olu Amoda

Olu Amoda is a Nigerian sculptor and designer known for transforming discarded materials — nails, metal scraps, found objects — into intricate, socially resonant forms.

A pioneer of repurposed design in Nigeria, his work speaks to urbanization, industry, and the layered realities of contemporary life, bridging fine art and functional object-making through a practice grounded in sustainability and storytelling.

Amoda has mentored generations of artists and designers across formal education and informal studio training.
