About Me
My name is Romeo Shagba, and I'm a visual artist. I depict my characters in sparse and eerily familiar environments, capturing only brief moments of what seem to be an ongoing dream.
I like to merge the warm and textured qualities of romantic-era paintings with techniques and tools from today, attempting to lock the look of my work within a fictional time frame between then and now.
I achieve my work with photography, digital painting, motion design, and collage.
I'm currently based in Winnipeg, and I've had the chance to both work as a creative professional and show my work in Malaysia, Nigeria and Canada.
