Blue Towel 1
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
"Blue Towel" is an artistic composition that demands our attention. The woman wrapped in the titular blue towel stands as a metaphor for the delicate nature of the human condition. The choice of a towel, an item commonly associated with comfort, adds a layer of paradox, suggesting that beneath the surface, vulnerability and uncertainty may reside.
The color blue further amplifies the artwork's emotive power. Blue, often associated with tranquility, introspection, and depth, offers a subtle insight into the subject's state of mind. It prompts us to consider the significance of self-reflection and the search for personal meaning that lies beneath the facade we present to the world.
Bello's "Blue Towel" invites viewers to delve into the multifaceted nature of vulnerability and identity. The woman's posture and gaze suggest introspection as if she is immersed in deep thought, grappling with the layers that make up her sense of self. The vulnerability expressed in her body language encourages us to reflect on our own journeys of self-discovery and the masks we wear to shield our vulnerabilities from the world.
The blue towel enveloping the lady can also be interpreted as a symbolic cocoon, representing a transformative stage in her life. It alludes to the moments of introspection and self-exploration that are essential for personal growth and understanding. Just as a caterpillar retreats into a cocoon before emerging as a butterfly, the woman in the artwork may be undergoing her own metamorphosis.

Cloaks 3: Expose
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
Cloaks 3: Expose" is a poignant and powerful artwork that speaks to the issue of oppression, marginalization, and societal judgment. The painting features a figure draped in a cloak, standing, and pointing.
The cloak in the painting represents the societal pressure to conform, and the figure represents the consequences of not conforming. The painting is a powerful representation of the consequences of non-conformity, and the emotional weight that comes with it.
The artwork is a reminder of the power of societal judgment and the role it plays in oppressing those who do not conform. The figure's stance and body language convey a sense of defeat and shame, reflecting the psychological and emotional toll that comes with societal judgment. The impact of societal norms and the fear of rejection that comes with not conforming.
The painting is not just a representation of oppression and societal pressure, but it is also an example of artistic excellence. The intricate details of the cloak, the figure, and the crowd demonstrate the artist's mastery of the craft. The use of light and shadow is also exemplary, creating a sense of depth and emotion that draws the viewer into the painting.
Moreover, the painting is a call to action, urging us to challenge societal norms and expectations that oppress and marginalize individuals. It is a call for empathy, compassion, and understanding, and a reminder that everyone deserves to be accepted and loved for who they are, regardless of whether they conform to societal norms or not.
In conclusion, "Cloaks 3: Expose" is a powerful work of art that speaks to the issue of oppression, marginalization, and societal judgment. It is a poignant reminder of the power of societal norms and the consequences of not conforming. It is also an example of artistic excellence, showcasing the artist's skill and creativity. The painting is a call to action, urging us to challenge societal norms and expectations and embrace empathy, compassion, and understanding.
