About

Romeo Shagba is a Nigerian-born visual artist based in Winnipeg, Canada. He creates altered visages and contemplative scenes utilizing photography, digital layering and painting.

Shadow play, poetic ambiguity and visual restraint mark Shagba's compositions. Figures may appear isolated, yet they invite the viewer inward, revealing layered narratives and textures that feel familiar and unmoored.
