Onesmus Okamar’s paintings in his exhibition ‘Archives of My Soul’ portray the soul in a genderless form. Women are dressed in colourful gowns, eyes closed, holding flowers, and offering each other comfort, and these same figures carry his experiences and thoughts.
The pieces exude themes of self-love, inner peace, self-esteem, and familial support. The gowns represent the serene inner world and outward comfort and protection to those around them.
