Brief Bio
Logun Ede symbolizes the harmonious fusion of masculine and feminine characteristics inherited from the father and the mother. Born to the freshwater deity Oshun and the hunter-warrior Ode, Logun Ede embodies traits from both of his parents. For half the year, he adopts the traits of his mother, living within the rivers and embodying her graceful, tranquil attributes, while for the other half, he takes on the aggressive characteristics of his father, wandering the forests and embracing the assertive, hunting aspects of Ode.
