SISI EKO Series

Sisi meaning Omoge(Young Lady). Sisi Eko is a term used to describe a
young beautiful (Omoge) Lady from Lagos irrespective of her size, age and
color. Sisi Eko can also mean City Lady. She represents the strength, style, and
resilience of women in urban environments, capturing the essence of Lagos’
dynamic spirit. Talking about the social, private lives of the female gender mainly representing the strength, style, and resilience of women in urban environments, capturing the essence of Lagos’ dynamic spirit. Their way of dressing, surviving, living, careers basically everything that can be said about them. Sisi Eko are energetic people, bubbly, happy-go-lucky no matter how difficult life is they always find their way around it. The love enjoyment and they bring comfort to the life’s of
those around them just like a Sunflower. The figures in these paintings are depicted through simplification and abstraction, as exactness or realism is seen less in this body of paintings has the idea or inspiration behind each work. Capturing emotions, scenes with palette knifes with expressions and body language un-detailed yet communicating volumes about each Sisi been represented in each paining. I would love to allow the viewers to enjoy the moment making connections with their own memories with each Sisi Eko been represented.
