Emmanuel OjebolaPortrait of George Stinney 2023
2023
About the Item
"Portrait of George Stinney" by Emmanuel Ojebola, is a powerful and poignant tribute to George Stinney, a young African American who was wrongfully convicted and executed in 1944 in South Carolina at the age of 14. The title and the portrayal of a bald young man likely aim to draw attention to the tragic injustice that Stinney faced at a very young age.
The artwork serves as a means of highlighting issues of racial injustice, wrongful convictions, and the importance of a fair and equitable legal system. It also prompts viewers to reflect on the historical and ongoing challenges related to race and the criminal justice system.

About Artist
Emmanuel Ojebola was born in southwest Nigeria Eruwa Oyo state in the late 90s. He had his secondary education in the Baptist model High school Sango Eruwa where he developed his interest in the art using the course of his junior secondary school education.
His interest in art came from learning from his then-creative art teacher (Mr. Segun Adesope) before proceeding to improve his art skills at the Ibarapa Polytechnic Eruwa. He loves to work with mixed media but mainly with coffee acrylic and oil. His passion for African black women and children with the childhood care he got from his mother during his childhood days is an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
He believes women are Virgo and sees them as gods here on earth. He sees himself as a creator who uses his coffee to create human figures with depth and meaningful art pieces.
Emmanuel Ojebola now practices as a full-time studio artist with a well-known and talented artist Oluwole Omofemi. And he sees the likes of Cesar Santos, Eddie Filer, and Oluwole Omofemi as inspirational figures. He sees his art as a part of him and a way for him to express the way he sees the world and its beauty.
