Bakare Abubakri-sideeq Babatunde
Afrocentric Radiance

2023

About the Item

In a vibrant celebration of African heritage and beauty, our protagonist, a stunning black African woman, graces the scene with her majestic presence. Crowned with a voluminous afro that echoes the richness of her roots, she captivates onlookers with confidence. Her gaze, direct and powerful, invites the audience into a narrative of self-assurance and cultural pride. Adorned with a beaded earring that whispers tales of tradition, she dons a resplendent pink dress adorned with a collage of Ankara fabrics. Each piece is intricately collaged around the neckline, telling a story of unity, diversity, and the colorful tapestry of African culture. Together, these elements harmonize to create a visual ode to the beauty, strength, and individuality of the African woman. Shipping Procedure 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 Bakare Babatunde Oluwadamilare was born in Ogun State, Nigeria. He completed his high school education in Lagos State and later pursued his tertiary education in Kwara State, where he obtained a Higher National Diploma in Library and Information Science. From a young age, he had a passion for art and was a self-taught artist. Over the years, he experimented with various mediums, but his favorite mediums are oil and acrylic on canvas and African wax prints in Ankara. His subject matter focuses on figure and portraiture, which aims to portray human emotions, experiences, and challenges. His paintings offer a unique perspective, interpreting his thoughts on canvas and African wax prints in Ankara. Recently, he started working on a series of paintings on Ankara fabrics as support. He was fascinated by the vibrant colors and patterns of the Ankara fabric, which inspired this discovery. He has participated in various art competitions and exhibitions, including the iCreate skill festival in 2017 and the ijakadi festival as an exhibitor. His works have been sold both in Nigeria and abroad, and he continues to create thought-provoking pieces that captivate and inspire his viewers.
