You sit with me when I am down,
Your face never with a frown.
You look at me as though I cannot,
My eyes were in tears, red, bloodshot.
You sit and stay and cuddle me,
Until the time that I can see.
That things are not as bad as I,
Thought they were, no need to cry.
You are my friend, you’re always there,
You always seem to have a care.
Oluwapelumi Olaosun, born and raised in the vibrant landscape of Osun State, Nigeria, illuminates the path of contemporary Nigerian artistry, using her brushes as instruments for social transformation, driven by a calling deeply ingrained in her being. With a steadfast dedication to her craft, Olaosun channels her passion into every stroke of acrylic and oil on canvas, transcending mere visual expression to weave narratives of profound significance. Each piece she meticulously crafts is a testament to her unwavering commitment to effecting positive change in a world yearning for transformation.
Drawing inspiration from the tapestry of her own life experiences and the poignant pulse of societal issues, Olaosun's art serves as a mirror reflecting the complexities of gender inequality, social injustices, and the rich tapestry of African history. Her canvas becomes a stage where the voices of the marginalized resonate, each brushstroke a silent protest against the status quo.
In her pursuit of artistic excellence, Olaosun embraces the challenges that come with experimentation, constantly pushing the boundaries of her creativity. Through self-teaching and an unyielding spirit of exploration, she has honed her skills in pencil and paint, infusing her work with a depth that captivates and resonates with viewers on a visceral level.
Olaosun's academic pursuits led her to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Geography and Planning Science from Adekunle Ajasin University, yet her true education lies in the vivid palette of her imagination and the stories she weaves on canvas. Currently residing in Ibadan, she continues to immerse herself in her craft, driven by a profound belief that art transcends mere aesthetics to become a catalyst for societal change.
Central to Olaosun's artistic philosophy is her belief that black is not merely a color but a profound representation of existence itself. Through the deliberate portrayal of black skin in her work, she underscores the intrinsic value and resilience of black identity, inviting viewers to contemplate the depth of its significance in a world often blinded by superficialities.
As Oluwapelumi Olaosun paints the story of change, each brushstroke carries the weight of her convictions, forging connections that bridge the chasm between art and activism. With every piece she creates, she invites us to join her on a journey of introspection and empathy, reminding us that true artistry lies not only in what is seen but in the profound emotions it evokes within us.
