Osa is an Urban GFX and Graffiti Artist using stencils, spray paint, epoxy, varnish, paper and boards to paint contemporary culture.

You may not know Osa Okunkpolor. But you know him. You’ve seen him standing by one of his iconic works on Guinness billboards across the country. You’ve seen his works in offices and lounges and fabrics. You’ve seen him, touched him, and even liked him.

And now you’re about to meet him.
