The woman in the portrait has a striking presence, with her bald head and piercing gaze. She exudes confidence and strength, despite her vulnerability. The red background adds to the intensity of the artwork, symbolizing the urgency of the message that Ogunniyi Oluwatosin is conveying.
The title "Red Card" is a nod to the phrase commonly used in soccer, where a red card is shown to a player who has committed a serious offense on the field. Every game has rules. Obey the rules, win the game; disobey the rule, lose it! The game of life has losers and winners. Play fairly and win! Ogunniyi Oluwatosin uses this phrase to draw attention to the injustices and inequalities that women face in society, particularly in African communities.
The portrait of the bald woman in "Red Card" is a representation of all women who have been marginalized and excluded from society because of their gender. The bald head is a symbol of vulnerability and the woman's gaze represents defiance in the face of oppression.
Through "Red Card," Ogunniyi Oluwatosin wants to send a message to society, calling for an end to gender-based discrimination and inequality. The artwork challenges the viewer to take action, speak out against injustice, and stand up for the rights of women everywhere.
The use of bold colors and the powerful imagery in the artwork create a strong emotional impact, forcing the viewer to confront the issues that Ogunniyi Oluwatosin is highlighting. The red background serves as a visual representation of the urgency of the situation, urging the viewer to take action.
In conclusion, "Red Card" is a powerful artwork that confronts the viewer with the harsh realities of gender-based discrimination and inequality. Ogunniyi Oluwatosin's portrait of the bald woman on a red background is a powerful symbol of the strength and resilience of women in the face of oppression. Through her art, Ogunniyi Oluwatosin encourages viewers to take action and stand up for the rights of women everywhere. "Red Card" is a call to action for all of us to work towards a world where gender-based discrimination and inequality no longer exist.
