Each fold of the fabric appears to tell a story of resilience, individuality, and inner strength.

"Ode to Self" seamlessly fits into this series, acting as a poignant reminder that self-confidence is a journey of continual growth and acceptance, where wisdom plays a significant role.
In "Ode to Self," Olaniyi Omotayo skillfully woven together elements of elegance, wisdom, and empowerment to create a visually enchanting and intellectually stimulating artwork. The portrayal of a gorgeously dressed woman holding a rolled book serves as an embodiment of the symbiotic relationship between self-confidence and wisdom.

About Artist
Olaniyi Omotayo (born 1995) is a self-taught artist who has always loved drawing right from his childhood. He was born and brought up in Ondo State in the southwestern region of Nigeria. He was fond of drawing on every surface he laid his hand on when he was a child. His parents were not in support of his drawing attitude while he was growing up because he used to mess up his notebooks and textbooks with sketches and scribbles. Despite the discouragement and punishment he got from his teachers and parents, he didn't give up on his Passion for art.
He finished his course of study (Business Administration) at the University as the best-graduating student in his department and with first-class honors in 2018. In spite of his academic feat, he didn't abandon his passion for "art". He moved to Lagos in 2019 and continued as a full-time artist after. Olaniyi has exhibited with several galleries both at home and abroad in the past few years.
