Influenced by the Brits, a painting by Olamide Ayomipo Adesola, also known as Ayo’lamide, is rooted in her migration journey
from Nigeria to the United Kingdom and offers a rich tapestry of a theme that radiates her personal identity from Nigeria to the United Kingdom and offers a rich tapestry of a theme that radiates her personal identity, colonialism and cultural adaptation. At first glance of the painting, the bold red background and the stylised portrayal of a young black woman evoke a sense of immediacy and visual impact.
Delving into Olamide’s artist statement provides valuable insights into the layers of meaning embedded within the painting. Central to the artwork is the portrayal of the migrant experience, with the young woman serving as a symbolic representation of the journey from familiarity to the unknown.
The use of color palette and composition further enriches the artwork’s narrative, with vibrant hues and stylized elements adding depth and complexity to the visual storytelling. Each brushstroke becomes a testament to the artist’s own journey of self-discovery and adaptation, as well as a reflection of the broader human experience of migration and displacement.
