O'Knolla

Kofo Nolla-Omidiran, also known as O'Knolla, is a British-Nigerian artist and designer based in West London. 

Inspired by African patterns and the rich tapestry of Ancient African symbol writing, Kofo channels the essence of those age-old forms of communication into her very own modern-day proto-asemic writing.

 

Imagine hieroglyphs and Nsibidis that have travelled through time, taken a detour through Kofo's imagination and emerged as a vibrant, cryptic language that dances across the canvas, sits on ceramics and is embedded in textiles. 

 

Her work isn't just art—it's an invitation to explore a world where symbols speak, but their meanings are left for you to decipher.
 

Kofo's pieces are like visual riddles, each one offering a fresh adventure into the mysterious realm of the unspoken.

Step into Kofo's world, where the past and future collide in a mesmerizing dance of symbols and stories, and discover the language that only your imagination can truly understand.
