Arugba Osun 2008

Twins Seven Seven created "Arugba Osun" using an array of vibrant colors and bold outlines, composing a scene teeming with figures and symbolic objects. The visual texture, achieved through intricate linework and pattern, evokes a sense of ritualistic energy. Seven Seven employs a dense, almost claustrophobic composition, challenging Western notions of spatial perspective. The figures, rendered in stylized forms, are interconnected through a network of lines and colors, creating a flattened picture plane. This challenges fixed meanings, inviting the viewer to decode the symbolic language embedded within the artwork's structure. Ultimately, "Arugba Osun" functions not just aesthetically but also as a complex cultural statement, reflecting the artist's engagement with Yoruba mythology. It's a dynamic site where tradition and modernity converge, prompting ongoing interpretation.
