Hello, I'm Obi Nwosisi; an animator, designer, and educator from Lagos, Nigeria. I have a a BFA in animation from the Savannah College of Art and Design, and I am currently pursuing my masters in digital arts and humanities at the University of British Columbia. At UBC I am researching how interactive narratives can be used to teach critical thinking.
My work draws inspiration from a variety of different sources such as textiles, paper crafts, and nature. I have been a lifelong storyteller and animation is just one of the mediums I use to communicate. I am most passionate about projects that involve education and advocacy, giving a voice to underrepresented communities. Having grown up on 4 different continents I am also interested in world history, global traditions, and languages.
I am also the founder of Crafty Kids Lagos, an arts and crafts studio for children of all ages.
When I'm not drawing or animating you can find me biking around town or baking bread.
