Ayooluwa Nihinlola is a graphic artist, an illustrator and a digital art enthusiast, whose latest project, Nollywood Legends, seeks to immortalize the impact of ‘Old Nollywood’ performers – as the film industry seems hellbent on moving on to newer, younger stars.
Nollywood Legends is a free 48-page e-book which features vibrant illustrations of some of the most acclaimed names in Nigerian cinema, from the great Pete Edochie to the late Bukky Ajayi – with each illustration coming with a short bio on that performer.
Ayooluwa said the project is mainly targeted at young people who think Nollywood begins and ends with performers like O.C Ukeje and Adesua Etomi – and hopes that this enlightens them a bit.
