Omar Ba - Form Nr. 1. 2006

[hyperallergic]

In July 2007, French President Nicolas Sarkozy gave an address in Dakar aimed at appeasing French-African postcolonial relations, in which he lamented that Africans had “not yet entered into history.” 

In Political Animals, on view at the Baltimore Museum of Art, Senegalese artist Omar Ba seemingly sets this nonsensical record straight with compelling portraits and tableaux that denounce Western-imposed violence and uphold African pride.

In the context of Ba's recent show at the @baltimoremuseumofart called "political animals" the choice of feline and canine representation appears to be part of a broader project concerning the legacy of colonialism. Thanks to @marcelomlmendonca for the tip.

Omar's first interview before the premier of Young Royals. Love it so much.

The Permanent Rain Press Interview with Omar Rudberg. (Watch in HD)

We had the opportunity to interview actor and musician Omar Rudberg! Watch the talented star chat about his breakout role as Simon in Netflix’s Young Royals, experience on-set, time in boy band FO&O, and recent music as a solo artist.

Akademiya AU Moments

Tighnari: Are you sure I can't join your team to get to Sumeru City?

Omar (Tighnari's dad): We're going two weeks before the school year starts, where would stay?

Tighnari: Cyrus still lives there. And your other friends.

Omar: I've not met them for years, I can't suddenly ask them to take care of my child for two weeks.

Tighnari: I could live in a tree. I know what's edible.

Omar: You're not allowed to live in the great tree, that's highly illegal.

-

Omar, cups Tighnari's cheeks: Don't break the law, no matter how bad of a law you think it is.

Cyrus: Tighnari! Oh, I've not seen you since you were a kit! Don't break the law, no matter how bad of a law you think it is.

Naphis: You must be Tighnari, I've heard about you from your father. Don't break the law, no matter how bad of a law you think it is.

Tighnari: Why does everyone keep saying that to me?

Tighnari, after finding out about the Dissemination of Information Act: What the fuck? That's bullshit!

Tighnari: Oh....

-

Tighnari: Shit, I didn't wake up early! I should quickly grab my bag so I can get to Sumeru City before the sun sets.

Tighnari, at Sumeru City: ...... Why do I have my mother's butterfly incubator?

-

Tighnari: Oh! Hello Scara.

Cyno: You know him? How?

Tighnari, technically committed a crime with him on his first day in the city: Uhhhhh......

Cyno: Forget I asked.

-

Sethos: I don't know, I'm a bit concerned about staying in the city.

Cyno: Don't worry, Cyrus and I will be here for you!

Sethos, immediately after seeing Tighnari: OH MY GOD HELLO HI CAN I BE YOUR FRIEND PELASE PLEASE PLEASE

Cyno: I've been betrayed. Abandoned.

-

Cyno: Let's check the dorm assignments. I'll show you where to find it, Cyrus showed me around campus beforehand. You'll probably be with me since it was noted down that we're re-

Sethos: MY NAME'S NEXT TO TIGHNARI'S YES!

Tighnari: He's my cousin now. >:)

-

Sethos: I wonder where the third Ba Fragment is.

Sethos: Tighnari?

Tighnari: I am the wrong person to ask about this, I spent most of my childhood in a tree.

-

Naphis: We're going on a field trip in the canopy.

Tighnari: *immediately starts climbing the tree*

Naphis: TIGHNARI! HARNESS!

Tighnari, holding onto the tree like a koala: .... If you don't want me climbing without one, you're not going to like how I get down.

-

Tighnari: Can I request a week off from courses?

Naphis: Why?

Tighnari: I have a collection of butterflies that are beginning to emerge from their cocoons and they aren't native to the area, so I need to take them back home to my mother.

Naphis: ..... Yes, but why do you have them?

Tighnari: It was an accident.

-

Sethos: You left your journal open when you left and.... What's with the notes?

Tighnari: They're useful notes to have.

Sethos: "Cyno is not a Valuka Shuna".

Tighnari: I thought he was.

Sethos: One of these notes is just a drawing of Cyno.

Tighnari: NO IT'S NOT!

-

Haitham: *sat in the corner at a party because it's too loud*

Tighnari: *ends up joining him*

Tighnari: Oh, hello. Too loud?

Haitham: Mm.

Tighnari: Yeah, same.

Tighnari:

Tighnari: Want to wander around the rainforest?

Kaveh, heading home: Where did my roommate go?

Sethos: Where did my roommate go?
