According to Design Indaba, the Nigerian man discovered his talent when he was small, a passion which made him pursue his interest in arts.

“As a sculptor, a major challenge as a Nigerian is poor power supply resulting in the artist spending more money running generators,” he said.

Despite the odds stacked against him, Abinoro is still creating arts that have never ceased to amaze people.
