Dennis Osadebe (born 1991) is a Nigerian mixed-media artist and sculptor living in Lagos known for his mixed-media paintings and sculpture. His practice utilises a personal iconography that explores heritage, technology and the possibilities of humanity. Osadebe coined the cultural movement 'Neo-Africa', as a response to the limiting nature of the term 'African Art', as a means to encourage others to rebrand tradition in a way that reflects the transforming world.
