Faith Omole
Faith Omole (b. 2000) is a self trained, illusionary visual artist of Yoruba descent from Kogi State, Nigeria. Her work is Illusionary because her figures are only seen when the viewer stands at a distance or scans from a camera lens, she explores the symbolism of ancient and contemporary motifs in creating juxtaposed portraits that represent the overall biography of a person in history or an event. Omole graduated from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria in 2022. Having studied Microbiology, she has an urgent sense and attention to details, this has guided her to embed intricate but historically ancient symbols, while simultaneously introducing impressionism in her works.
