Adeniyi-Jones blends figuration with abstraction, using painting to create spaces that reflect diasporic narratives and histories of exchange, emphasizing autonomy and identity.
His artistic practice embodies a deeper sense of African possibility, drawing on Yoruba heritage to explore themes of body, environment, and cultural memory.
The highly stylized, genderless figures in his works resonate with gestures of dance, symbolizing self-governance and embodying a 'different kind of Blackness' in contemporary dialogues.
Through his paintings, Adeniyi-Jones navigates between histories, utilizing the human form as a medium to tell stories that reflect both individual and collective identities.
