OUR PHILOSOPHY
Life is a Performance
At Bayo Park & Galleries, we live an artful life and create objects based on a unique philosophy, “Life is a Performance,” developed by Olabayo David Olaniyi while teaching at the University of Michigan from 2000-2001. Based on the philosophy, we are all actors performing in our various daily roles as objects interacting with other objects relative to time and space.
The Power of Objects
“Life is a Performance” recognizes the role objects play in our daily performances. Objects have their own inherent power. At Bayo, our unique art objects are designed, crafted, and birthed into the world with this understanding. Our objects perform. THEY YIELD POWER.
THE POWER OF ART
The Role of Art & Artists
As artists we have devoted our artful talents and presence on Earth to envision, design, create, carve, shape, and mold a greater world. We use art and performance as a force of Goodness in the world and an instrument of change. Hence, after leaving the University of Michigan in 2001, we removed our artistry out of the confinement of the museum and gallery realm and into spheres that the arts rarely reach. Often, our unique digital art combined with written performances address hot topics, global powers, public figures, and world bodies, using the power of art to transform the world into for greater peace.
