Lawson Oyekan (born in London, England 1961), is a British Nigerian contemporary ceramic sculptor and the first recipient of the Grand Prix Award for the 1st World Ceramic Biennale 2001 in Korea.
==Overview==
Lawson Dokun Oyekan was born in 1961 in England and grew up in Ibadan, son of a Nigerian high court Judge, attended Loyola College, Nigeria, West Africa, returning to England in 1983 to study art where he attended the art foundation course in East Ham. Initially learning the practice of throwing with porcelain, Oyekan created diaphragm-like artworks with a lifted center. He then moved on to making hand built larger, monolithic forms. Both of these constructions include his experiences as a Londoner, as well as an African. His pieces are adorned with piercings and sometimes include text in English or his native language, Yoruba. There is a presence in Oyekan’s forms that speak of his experiences and his upbringing.
“My intent is to express human endurance and deliver a message of reassurance: that human suffering can be healed.” 〔Ceramics Today. “Lawson Oyekan, Winner of the Grand Prix Award for the 1st World Ceramic Biennale 2001 Korea. Can be found at http://www.ceramicstoday.com/articles/062501.htm〕
