Join us for an inspiring solo exhibition by Nigerian artist Bola Obatuyi (@bolaobatuyi_art ) who brings together fabric, oil, and acrylic paints to celebrate femininity, body positivity, and sisterhood. Her vibrant works challenge socially constructed notions of womanhood, particularly the misconception that physical appearance is the most important aspect of being a woman.
Bola's art is a powerful tribute to women in Nigeria and beyond, using discarded Ankara fabrics to create masterpieces that blend beauty, culture, and sustainability. Through her unique process, she transforms waste into wealth, showing how art can promote African heritage while making a statement about resourcefulness and creativity.
This exhibition offers more than just a visual experience. Bola’s mission is to inspire the next generation of artists and encourage young people to embrace the power of art as a tool for societal change. She believes that art should be a dynamic force, one that opens new perspectives and solutions to real-world challenges.
Don't miss this chance to explore an emotional and thought-provoking journey through Bola's art, and engage in meaningful dialogue about the role of art in shaping culture and empowering communities.
