WHY WE CAN'T WAIT

- September 26, 2021

WHY WE CAN'T WAIT Humanity is an important element of life which triggers us to help others, understand our infirmity and motivates us to help the human race. When you show humanity, hhhyou have a feel click or a pinch from your inner soul which you cannot get from something else. Every religion tells us about humanity, peace and love. That is why no religion is higher than humanity.

Before every election, all politicians do promise equality of race and gender, but once in power, they are always sluggish to pass laws that gives maximum punishment to those involved in racial killings and rape.

OLUFEMI OYEWOLE: Olufemi Oyewole’s paintings are the result of his endless quest to capture and simplify the essence of life’s quiet moments, the in-between scenes where nothing much appears to be happening but which speak volumes about our individual and collective humanity. Known primarily as a watercolourist, Oyewole believes painting should be creatively understood beyond the academic introduction of colours as pigments. He has recently begun experimenting with unconventional materials, majorly Rugs and Carpets and he concentrates on the reuse of its industrial waste to avert or minimize its contributions to environmental pollution. Oyewole studied Fine Arts (painting) at the Federal College of Education (Technical), Akoka, Lagos, and Fine and Applied Arts at Obafemi Awolowo University, where he concluded his MFA in painting (2018). He has had two solo exhibitions and has participated in several group exhibitions.
