Yemi Butterman is a Nigerian Poet and Narrative Fiction Author who finds solace in all forms of creative symphonies. His love for life is intertwined with a deep interest in literature, culture, and social issues.Yemi is the author of Two Geniuses and a Fool and Pride of the Middle One, his first two published works of fiction that have ignited a profound sense of wonder about language as an end to justifying the disregard of migrants' potential within the Nordic world.
Driven by curiosity, Yemi continues to challenge the notion of "rightness" and "truth," through storytelling, engaging themes such as identity, heritage, and migrant experiences in the North, which greatly shape the trajectory of his writings.
Yemi speaks to the Red Transmissions Podcast from the library of Nordic Culture Point in Helsinki, Finland, as part of the cultural festival ARTIVAL.
