About the Artist
Inspired by African culture, mathematics, hip-hop culture, and nature, Oluwafemi cultivates a musical and visual artistic practice he calls Rhythmism, which is the study and use of patterns in art. In addition to recent artist residencies at Painted Bride, Shofuso, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, his artistic practices have included the design of art installations used at music festivals, visual direction and asset creation for brands, murals made in conjunction with Mural Arts Philadelphia, animated art projections and short films, and music-making for documentaries, album production, and the Black Star Film Festival Recap. Femi is also a sought-after DJ—you might recognize him from the annual Twilight in the Garden gala as well as from numerous events in partnership with Worldtown and Vinyl Tap 215. In each of these projects, the primary objective has been to connect in a meaningful way with community and public spaces.
