Ogen Osiegbu – Nigeria

Ogen Osiegbu is a self-taught artist from Delta State, Nigeria, but

lives in the city of Lagos. His art is inspired by the Orogodo River,

which is a source of livelihood to the people of Owa Kingdom,

(Ogen’s ancestry home), in Delta State.

In his own words Ogen says … “I call my art Orogodo Caricature as a

homage to the only river (Orogodo river) and source of livelihood to

my people in my village of Owa Kingdom, Delta State” ……. As for

the Caricature, I believe if born into an earlier time, I would be a

Benin bronze mask maker…. I infuse playful cartoons which I

watched as a child growing up, to come up with my iteration of

masks called the Orogodo Masks which is prevalent in my art”.

Ogen Osiegbu

Ogen’s love for the Benin masks comes from his ancestral link to the

Benin tribe through his grandmother who is partly from Edo State,

the home of the Benin people.
