This year’s virtual exhibition is titled ‘Timeless Memories; The Humanity of WS‘. Drawing its title from the WSICE theme “I AM because YOU ARE,” the exhibition aims to reinforce the commitments of Soyinka to the cause of humanity; as well as the objective of the WSICE programme; aimed essentially at mentoring young minds for a better tomorrow.

This special edition comes with this Art E-Book. The idea is to create worthy memorabilia as we all celebrate a man that is an embodiment of humanity and grace.

The Living Legends collection:
The E-book also contains a collection of drawings and paintings of Soyinka contributed by the Olu Ajayi Studios. The collection is an excerpt from the huge body of works that the painter Olu Ajayi has harvested via his unique project, LIVING LEGENDS, designed to  identify, honour and induct prominent, iconic and high profile Nigerian professionals who have helped to promote the ideals of the society. Periodically, Ajayi convenes a group of his colleagues and students to do live drawings and paintings of cultural icons.
