About the Curator
Bolaji Oluwasola is a Christian Minister, Multimedia Artist, and Attorney. She is a proud Nigerian-American from Baltimore, MD who now calls Harlem home. There was an 11 year stint in Cambridge, MA somewhere in there, but she finally claimed her freedom from that cold and doesn’t like to discuss those darker days (just kidding…somewhat). Cuba, Brazil, and Nigeria have all been home to her at various points in her adult life. She is a lover of tea seeking to live at the intersection of faith, justice, and healing.
Bolaji attended Harvard University (AB in Sociology), Harvard Divinity School (Master of Divinity), and Columbia Law School (JD). She is barred in New York and California.
A portion of Òmìnira’s proceeds directly support advocacy to abolish the death penalty.
Òmìnira was like “medicine for my soul.”
