Babasegun OIasupo-Ojo is a senior at Loyola University Maryland majoring in Photography (Visual Arts Department). He is a huge fan of photography and artwork because it gives him the opportunity to use his imagination, creativity, and artistic skills to create something new and beautiful for the world to see from his eyes. His favorite type of photography work is primarily surrealism photography because it gives him the chance to make something bizarre and weird that we usually see in our subconscious mind into reality to show how us human beings are different from each other and how to embrace the gift God has given us.
“Untitled” from Baba’s World of Weirdness
Baba’s World of Weirdness, combines my photography with surrealism to manifest our subconscious minds and dreamlike materials into reality.
This work shows how we should express our uniqueness in not just ourselves as human beings but how we express the world in our own views as different people. My work references the surrealist worlds of photographer Roger Ballen and Man Ray, using the ideas of surrealism to merge the unconscious and conscious we see every day in a dreamworld into reality.
By bringing our own imagination and dreamlike versions of our thoughts into reality, Baba’s World of Weirdness explores our uniqueness and differences as human beings
