Iyiola Dina AKA Gafar - Artist/Student

Iyiola AKA Gafar, a shortened form of the name "Abdulgafar" which means “Servant of the All Forgiving”.

He is an artist, Architecture student, and general creative. He has always loved design and aesthetics, and visual art is his preferred way of expressing himself. Born in Canada but lived most of his life in Lagos, Nigeria, Iyiola believes Lagos is a wonderful place, and it has influenced his art and his identity greatly.

He moved to Halifax in 2019 for school, and he has learned to appreciate what he used to think was a boring city.

He believes there is a lot to discover in Halifax, and he hopes to explore more of its art scene and connect with other creatives like him.
