A visual communication designer who has worked as a branding expert for the last seven years, Agboada earned an MFA in Visual Communication Design from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He uses dialogue to explore ways to encourage conversation. His practice revolves around exploring how people define community, identity, and culture via multidisciplinary approaches, ranging from artist books to public space activations. He’s dedicated to unearth improved ways of creating connection by focusing on how people relate to each other and the spaces they inhabit, and the navigational skills involved for effective communication.
