ARTIST STATEMENT
 

BOPHO's artwork takes a look at the emotional seasons we as humans live through. Our emotions move through waves and cycles, never lasting forever but always coming back around. Each of BOPHO's art pieces attempts to make a discussion on these emotions through the use of charcoal, wood, fire and a range of other mediums. BOPHO's art style takes inspiration from street artist, cartoons and African culture.

“How does it make you feel?” is a question often asked to people viewing BOPHO's  work. They expect their audience to create their own personal connection and story to the art. A piece about sadness is simply about sadness, the story comes from the audience member’s own life story and the memories they’ve stored along the way.
