About the Item

"Home" is a thought-provoking artwork created by Lawal Ibrahim that portrays a man sitting on a chair in a contemplative stance. The piece stands as an embodiment of the artist's reflections on the concept of home, a place where one feels a sense of belonging and security. The artwork features a man sitting on a cushioned chair, with his hands resting on the arms of the chair and his head upright. The man's posture suggests that he is in deep thought, perhaps contemplating his life and his place in the world. His face is not visible, leaving the viewer to ponder what the man is thinking about. The chair upon which the man sits is another crucial element of "Home." The chair symbolizes a place of rest and comfort, a place where one can relax and feel at ease. It represents a physical manifestation of the concept of home, a place where one can sit and feel a sense of belonging. Furthermore, the artist's choice of medium adds a unique dimension to the artwork. Lawal Ibrahim used colored pen on paper, which allowed him to create a sense of depth and texture. The use of digital art also gives the artwork an organic feel, which contrasts with the refined and polished feel of other art forms. In conclusion, "Home" by Lawal Ibrahim is a profound artwork that explores the concept of home and the human need for a sense of belonging. Through the use of color, posture, and medium, the artist has created an artwork that invites the viewer to reflect on their own thoughts and feelings about home. The artwork is a testament to the power of art to stimulate introspection and encourage self-reflection.

Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (Issued by the Gallery) About Artist I am Lawal Ibrahim, a visual artist, born in Lagos, Nigeria in 1996. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Biology Education from the University of Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria in 2016. I proceeded to my postgraduate studies at the Open University, Abuja where I got a Master’s Degree in Administration and Planning in 2020. My works are centered around the consciousness of humans and their relationship with our surroundings, using mediums ranging from pens to watercolors, fabric, and newspapers. I delved into a new style of art called Aprosopi. This style of art combines hyper-realism from traditional art and digital art. With less emphasis on the face, it is a way of asking questions, about is human facial features importance exaggerated and their implications on our societal relationships. All my life I have always wanted to express myself through my art and get them to be an extension of my innate thoughts I participated in a group exhibition held in Abuja at the Ivory Place; the Flow Session (2021) I currently reside in Abuja, Nigeria, where I work as a full-time artist

Spring of Hope
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
"Spring of Hope," encapsulates the essence of the artwork. Just as spring represents a season of rejuvenation and new beginnings, the woman in this piece embodies the idea of hope blooming anew. The flowing scarf, with its gentle and fluid movement, conjures images of a gentle breeze, carrying with it the promise of better days ahead. Oyindamola's use of color in "Spring of Hope" is both intentional and evocative. She employs soft, pastel hues that evoke a sense of serenity and optimism. The woman's visage radiates tranquility, and her eyes suggest a moment of introspection and inner peace. It's as if she is embracing the beauty of the present while eagerly anticipating the opportunities that the future may hold. The central figure in "Spring of Hope" is rendered with remarkable attention to detail. Oyindamola captures the elegance and grace of the woman, who exudes a sense of poise and strength. Her closed eyes convey a sense of trust and surrender, suggesting a willingness to embrace the unknown with open arms. Symbolism plays a crucial role in this artwork. The scarf, flowing around the woman's neck, is a powerful symbol of continuity and resilience. It represents the idea that no matter the challenges faced, there is always a thread of hope that connects us to a brighter future. The scarf's circular form also signifies the cyclical nature of life, where endings inevitably give way to new beginnings. "Spring of Hope" is a painting that resonates deeply with viewers, inviting them to reflect on the ever-present possibility of renewal in their own lives. The closed eyes of the woman encourage introspection and a sense of connection with the universal human experience of longing for better days. Oyewumi Oyindamola...
