"The Presence Of Silence"
Olamide Ogunade is a rising star in the contemporary African art scene. Known for his captivating portraiture, Ogunade masterfully fuses hyper-detailed pen and pencil work with bold acrylics and atmospheric charcoal to create striking, emotionally resonant figures. His unique visual language has attracted collectors from across Europe, the UAE, and the United States, establishing him as one of Nigeria's most exciting emerging talents.
The recurring bubble motif in his work is more than a stylistic flourish. It represents the ephemeral nature of life and the beauty found in transient moments. As Ogunade explains, these bubbles—like those from childhood games—appear brilliant and whole for a second before vanishing, just like moments in time
