The Legacy Project 001: The Shadow of Death is on every Face




The Shadow of Death is on every face. That's the kind of death that frightens me. This Shadow of death slowly, slowly eats away at the region of Life, and before You know it everything's dark and you can't see, and the people around you think of you as more dead than alive.






This series embodies a distinct collection of artworks by Artist Fatola Israel that centres on the largely unaddressed aspect of our life; the rather subdued experience of Human’s perception of Death…and Life too, it cuts across all borders, race and background. We are all going to die someday.  Drawing from his experiences as well as that of others,

Fatola’s bold, incisive approach to address this issue provides a fresh perspective on topics as varied as Life, Death, Legacy, Impact and influence, and also sheds light on the most pressing issues of today, part sociological tract, part polemic. 






The collection exposes the fact that death still remains largely unaddressed within oneself in most Humans. It is the natural consequence of Death that makes life sparkle brightly.

This phase of life often believed as absurd paradoxes of modern day life perceptions

Time Perspective 02: This is the story of a helpless woman who is about to become famous, but for the very wrong reasons.

We are all currently going through the coronavirus pandemic, and I can't help but ask the question of whether people have to choose between dying by the Virus or by other means? Means such as fear, hate, racism, ignorance or even starvation. Should there be a need for that question in the first place? World Nations casting aspersions on another, so much to blame on the topic of transparency, and world domination. The negligence of Health institutions. Conspiracy theories floating through the wind, here and there. After all is said and done, what do we make of all these? The idea of legacy may remind us of death, but it's not about death. Being reminded of death is actually a good thing, because death informs life. It gives you a perspective on what's important. It helps us decide the kind of life we want to live and the kind of world we want to live in. Leaving a legacy is a human need. It is in part selfish – we want to feel immortal. The idea of leav

She's ART. You don't quite know why you're drawn to her, but you don't question it.

"Eve" doesn’t have a race, color or hair type. Eve is a lifestyle every female lives unknowingly each day, making decisions and sharing her time, self and space with others not because she’s a slave but because she’s the mother of all living. "Eve" is who we are and what we stand for. She’s beautiful, in her flawlessly flawed natural state.

The Voice of the Voiceless - My approach to Light, Composition, and others Elements

Fatola's The Voice of the Voiceless Your understanding and appreciation of this piece "The Voice of the Voiceless" lies in my intent to create. This can be enhanced by asking the questions, "Why was this created?" and What is it's purpose?" My Candid Answer: By replicating reality in the finest detail, I have simply pursued Truth. It's very simple. The reason why I have created this piece is an attempt to reveal the Truth about how the world looks, and how it works.  My aim is to force you to confront Azeez' troublesome gaze. And I sincerely hope the truth I discover (which I believe is endless) provides a valid commentary on his condition as a human. Throughout my Project "Through Heaven's Eye's", I will be reaching outward to describe truths of "others". Truth about humanity - by puting myself in their position, and trying to reflect with a great honesty, their innermost acclaim. experiences and emotions.
