Solomon Omogboye’s latest body of work centres on young children from his church, evoking innocence, vitality and the promise of the future. Children become symbols of life itself, while the presence of other hands holding them introduces a quiet yet profound gesture of care and belonging. These hands transform the portraits into meditations on home, affirming that it is not merely a place, but the embrace of family. Moving slightly away from the traditional portrait, Omogboye incorporates this subtle symbol to expand the narrative of identity and connection. His paintings remind us that home is found where love, support and family endure.
