About
heyyy :) My name is Osadolor and I'm a New York-based art director, visual maker, creative researcher, and sound designer. I put the multi in multi-hyphenate and have always been fascinated by the creative process from start to finish. As an independent artist, I've learned to wear multiple hats and carry out numerous project roles with great skill and strategy. My drive to create and envision new ways of understanding our rapidly changing world translates across my work in marketing, advertising, fashion, film, entertainment, media, art, etc. I recently graduated from Stanford University with a B.A. in African and African American Studies with Honors and Distinction and a minor in Art. As a passionate young creative eager to express and develop my multidisciplinary skills further, I actively implore my expansive approach to multitudes of practices to craft and carry out projects with intentional effectiveness.
My experiences, [physical, social, and cultural] environments, and media consumption continue to shape my nuanced thoughts on life as a Blackqueer Nigerian American born and raised in Dallas, Texas. Moments of discovery, reflection, introspection, and the messy flux of self/communal realization influence my Lo-Fi videos, experimental sonic design, expressive photography, mixed-media presentations of digital manipulations, texturized designs, intricate yet fluid drawings, and my overall multifaceted sense of direction.
In my globally charting podcast, a coming of age, but irl, I blur introspection and conversation through uniquely crafted sonic experiences. My latest experimental documentary, a_blurred_fluxx_00.avi, was a Best Documentary (International Short Film) finalist at the 2024 London Breeze Film Festival. I was a part of the post-screening panel discussion for NewFest36 at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. I have shown video, sound art, and mixed-media works in galleries and festivals. I’ve been featured in Something Curated and Boy.Brother.Friend. I also produced an immersive listening experience at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics.
I'll update this as I continue to do even more incredible things! I would love to connect and am open to work and press opportunities.
