Living by Design with Mayowa Alabi


Listen Later

In this episode of OnPeople, we sit with Mayowa Alabi — the self-taught, multidisciplinary visual artist better known as Shutterbug. From photography and painting to animation, design, and fashion, Mayowa’s creative journey is as layered as his art.

He talks about growing up in Lagos, discovering his artistic gift as a child, and building a career that’s taken him from CcHub to BBC, with collaborations spanning Meta, Balmain, Uber, and more. We also discuss the deeper side of creativity, structure versus freedom, the need to constantly evolve, and what it means to build a life where art and purpose align.

From his 10 Days of Shutterbug exhibition in London to his philosophy of being a “vessel for the work,” this episode is a 40+ minute masterclass in curiosity, discipline, and creative growth.

If you’re a creative, dreamer, or builder at heart, Mayowa’s story will remind you that real art is evolution. Tune in!
