Meet the 3 winning digital artists in the Absolut Vodka’s 2021 Creator competition
Absolut Vodka has now announced the three winning digital artworks for its Absolut Creator competition which called on digital artists across the country throughout the month of July to envision what a better Nigeria looks like using graphic design and digital illustration.
1. SAMUEL YUSUF
Samuel’s artwork represents the connection between freedom of expression and freedom of the mind.
“You are only as powerful as your mind is. Everything is created twice, first in the mind then in the physical. What the Nigerian youths need right now is a transformation in their minds for a greater and better Nigeria.” - Samuel Yusuf

2. ERNEST CHIBUIKE
Ernest’s piece speaks of the need to marry our culture and history with the possibilities of a better future that technology offers to us.
“The Nigerian history and cultural background is filled with great potential that when fused with the present contemporary technology, the future will be very productive for all Nigerians” - Ernest Chibuike

3. NELSON SAMUEL OLADELE
With his piece, Nelson wants to illustrate that culture is freedom and that everyone should be able to express themselves.
“We were taught in school that culture is a people's way of life. Our culture is freedom - or it should be. Everyone should be able to express themselves, only then can we find fulfilment in our way of life”- NELSON SAMUEL OLADELE
