About the Item

Shipping Procedure FREE Shipping Worldwide Ships in a well-protected tube from Nigeria This work is unique, not a print or other type of copy. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity. About Artist Ogunleke Festus Abiodun was born on December 17, 1998. A Nigerian surface painter with a textured finish. He studied art full-time and graduated from Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile Ife, Osun State, with a degree. Intricate designs painted on a spiral texture are a hallmark of his distinctive painting technique, which represents human imbalance and life's intricacies. Taking inspiration from people's varied experiences, He wants to use art to express the core of human emotions and hardships. His art explores themes of perseverance, vulnerability, and the interdependence of life, delving into the depths of the human psyche. Artist Statement In my artwork, I explore the interconnectedness of nature and humanity through the use of spiral texture on the background and roots on the human body. The spiral texture represents the cyclical nature of life, the constant movement and evolution of the world around us. It symbolizes growth, transformation, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. The roots on the human body serve as a visual representation of our connection to the earth, our foundation and source of nourishment. They intertwine with the figure, weaving in and out of the skin, symbolizing the deep roots of our existence and how we are grounded in the natural world. Together, the spiral texture and roots tell a story of resilience and growth, of the cyclical nature of life and the interconnectedness of all living beings. They remind us of our place in the world, our connection to the earth, and each other. Through this artwork, I aim to evoke a sense of harmony and unity, a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the natural world and our place within it.

Symbol of Memories 2
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
Symbol of Memories 1 is an original painting by Oladimeji Alabi. Oladimeji created the Symbol of Memories with Mixed Media on a 30W by 50H inches primed canvas. The symbol of Memories is inspired by the story of my childhood. The objects and signs we grew up with as a child in our homes become symbols of our memories today. Art has the ability to evoke strong emotions and convey meaningful messages. One such artwork that does just that is "Symbol of Memories," a stunning piece that uses the mother as a symbol of life and hope. This artwork is made even more significant by the use of damask fabric, which was popular among Nigerian women in the late 70s to 90s and used for making gele, the head ties worn by women. The artwork speaks volumes about the importance of mothers in society. The mother is dressed in a vibrant damask fabric, which adds a sense of richness and texture to the painting. The use of damask fabric in the painting is significant as it represents a part of Nigerian culture and history. Damask was a popular fashion among Nigerian women in the late 70s to 90s and was used to make gele, the head ties worn by women on special occasions. The fabric is often associated with elegance, sophistication, and beauty, which adds a layer of meaning to the artwork. The mother in the painting is the focal point of the artwork, symbolizing the importance of mothers in society. Mothers are the backbone of families, providing love, support, and guidance to their children. They are often the ones who hold families together through difficult times, serving as a symbol of hope and resilience. The use of the damask fabric in the painting also represents the concept of memories. The fabric has a rich history in Nigerian culture, and for many people, it is a symbol of their childhood and the memories they hold dear. The painting serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving memories, both good and bad, and how they shape our lives. Overall, "Symbol of Memories" is a beautiful piece of art that celebrates the role of mothers in society. The use of damask fabric adds a layer of meaning to the painting, representing the importance of preserving memories and the rich culture of Nigeria. The mother as a focused subject symbolizes life and hope, the fabric applied in this art is called damask, which was a popular fashion among Nigerian women around the late 70s to 90s used for making gele(the head ties).
