About the Item
This expansive blue sky we all share is a global symbol of togetherness. It was set in motion by a group of women in Afghanistan ready to be heard.
In 2008, a small group of brave women from a group called RAWA” gathered in war-torn Khandahar wearing a blue scarf to publicly pray for peace and justice in Afghanistan. A surprising 1500 more brave women joined to begin the Blue Scarf movement. In 2009, thousands more women joined the movement with organizing help from Unifem.
With this peaceful hike, a global movement was born, blue scarves were brought back from Afghanistan and distributed by peace delegates from Voice for Creative Non-violence

About Artist
Osoba Omoayo George(b.1998 ) is a Nigerian visual artist whose flight as an artist started at the age of fifteen, he was exposed to the world of graffiti, which inspired his interest in the visual arts. At this age, he acquired an interest in personalizing items such as T-shirts, caps, and sneakers, which ultimately prompted him to enroll in an art program at a more advanced educational facility. From there, he graduated from Yaba College of Technology, where he majored in painting and studied art.
His legacy centers around him constantly exploring new ways to communicate and express himself through his art style, taking natural forms of color, shape, lines, and textures. Therefore, leaving his works appear similar to their natural state while also looking more dramatic and stylized. Oil paint, acrylic paint, and polymer are mediums he blends with while creating.
He is on a flight to promote and build up self-confidence, rebuild elegance and express the beauty in black skin(nature) through his works.

View AllFigurehead
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
In the days when every seaport had its figurehead to show, this same day calls for free, I must go save these countrymen, my honorable crew if they still breathe.
I must sail deep down north again, with strong men and skillful hands.
All I ask this day is dread naught and a star to steer her as the people blare for salvaging;
And all I ask again is a windy day and a friendly storm at night,
And a sweet dream with my shipment when the long cruise is over.

"Idiot Wind, Sweet Reason", acrylic painting, duality, politics, humanity
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Idiot Wind, Sweet Reason" is an acrylic painting on canvas measuring 24" high by 36" wide. Again cutting to the quick, Dale Williams posits our best and worst instincts as a duality, and that duality as a confrontation. There's nowhere to hide in any of William's paintings, that's part of the charge coming off his canvases. That's particularly true with this painting – as hideous as these personnages may be in Idiot Wind and Sweet Reason, we recognize their struggle for grace.
Press Release 2018: "Williams acknowledges a large range of influences on his vision: the moral lessons embodied in the works of 17th century engraver Jacques Lagniet, the darkling phantasms and tragic reportage of Goya’s Caprichos and Disasters of War, and the personal mythologizing of the late paintings of Philip Guston. Such works echo throughout Williams social surrealist re-visioning." – George Del Barrio, Vanderbilt Republic, Brooklyn NY
Dale Williams has exhibited in the New York City area for the past 25 years. He is a 2014 recipient of a Fellowship in Printmaking/Drawing/Book Arts from the New York Foundation for the Arts. His most recent one-person show, “America Now Suite,” which re-visioned American history in service of the civic imagination, was held at Gowanus Loft, Brooklyn in October 2018. A selection of portraits from “America Now Suite” was included in the BRIC Biennial, Winter/Spring 2019. His portrait of Osip Mandelstam...

"Starnosed Mole", acrylic painting, portrait, politics, poetry, humanity, resist
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Starnosed Mole" is an acrylic painting with litho ink and charcoal on paper, measuring 36" high by 24" wide. It is one of 50 portraits that comprise Profiles in Democracy. Savage in their execution, they are nevertheless heartfelt expressions from the artist – politically, socially, culturally – in some cases featuring text and language in the portrait. In this case, one individual musters faith and fortitude to press on, fight on. The words at top read: "Audacity – said the mole – shall root that mountain down."
From Dale Williams: "Profiles in Democracy is a group of 50 portraits completed in 2019. They are an expression of sorrow at the fracturing ideals that our country now teeters upon. The portraits are mostly – not exclusively – imaginary: a populace viewed from the inside out, people that someone like our current president might call losers. They perhaps “live in gaudy poverty, powerful destitution,” to quote Osip Mandelstam...
