Art and The Signature of The Soul: Tomi Owo's Canvas of Vulnerability

Some things have been coming to me lately, while taking my usual stroll, and one of them was that the overall consciousness of a collective can be directly traced to the quality of art that the collective is being fed through its mainstream information highway

If one were to look closely, one would see that the mannerisms, dress codes, color preferences, and even sounds are influenced by the creative nuances that constitute the artistic trend at a given time.

Yes, art is that powerful, and also has mystical implications if you would believe so. Artists and people who create usually receive the heavenly reward of clarity and opportunity to attain new heights of consciousness whenever they create from a place of authenticity. This perfectly echoes the part where the biblical Christ said that he would prune those who bear fruit, so that they would be able to bear more fruit

Whence, genuine creatives who manifest from the heart attain an alignment that affords them the exposure to realities that challenge them to rise to higher dimensions of consciousness and creative responsibility.

The Initiate

                                      

Tomi Owó is an empathetic creative, who employs the romanticized appeal of high-frequency adlibs and accenting vocals as a medium of projecting her light and healing into the deep bowels of the collective

Music for Tomi is a vessel for sharing her psychological observations of the human experience via constructs, meaning, perspective, and the various ‘beings of the self’… and, alternatively, she uses the art for transmuting the energetic tension she feels when she pours too from her bucket to fill up the vessel of the one/people she loves.

“Progressing constructively, Art is objectively the surface hooks for which the tentacles of the soul find rest. This means that art directly translates to the soul. In order for this to be it has to of course be reasonable to think of the soul as having portals through which it perceives artistic media i.e. to say the portals for sound and light if we assume that art can only b propagated through music and color”.

As a flair through resonance, Tomi Owó uses her melodies, adlibs, chants and breaths to effectively communicate her emotional density. These outlets are vents through which her tension is effectively released whence this tension is manifested by a profound expression of the authenticity of self.

Numerous mystics and transcendental psychologists stress the need for authenticity of the expression of self. Just like the slogan of the Power Journal, authenticity is the highest form of self love and what we see Tomi Owò manifesting is a load-lightening process, safe to say an unburdening for herself per the light she is guilted from within to radiate to the world, and how best to do this if not by being her most truest self, and in turn, her truest self can only be expressed in infinite love which she does through the creative nuances effused in her music

Essence

                                   

The responsibility of any artist is to spread love through their creation and the two ways for this to happen is either by radiating their light or to proffer healing through the audience's comprehension of their piece. To radiate light is to inspire, to energize another soul by pointing a self cursor of exemplification while healing is shared with the empathetic intention of helping another soul to find rest through the stasis of reassurance embodied in the piece.

Tomi Owó exemplifies this paradigm by the vulnerability she portrays in her story telling. Her uncanny ability to place herself in a victim’s position reassures the stiff of heart that it is perfectly okay and human to feel vulnerable at times, so long as we do not forget our power. There might be one or two lessons to learn through the opportunity of our open mind at the time

This singular antecedent is her creative signature , it sets her apart from the monotony ever present in the mainstream scene. At the time of this writing, she might not yet have the global acclaim she yet deserves but a peek into her discography sure converts one into a believer. Two powerful items of this discography being the “Afro Classic” hits: Beautiful and Bird: The former being a a poetic ode that signals a “self-reflection” call to the empaths out there doing so much on the outside but not looking much within while the latter is a song that depicts an emergence, a coming to terms with one’s freedom to soar and explore

Power

True art is spiritual. It creates a ripple in the universe that carries the divine signature of its creator. And when, this art impacts a consciousness that benefits from its essence, the reward is meant to circle back to the creator by automatically rerouted signals that carry the frequency signature of the creator.

Tomi Owó’s power is in the alchemy she creates with her vocals; the call in her lead, The swirls and whispers in her backups and the sustained breaths in her adlibs . The romanticized allure she emphasizes in how she meticulously pronounces the words in her lyrics. This is the spiritual underground game, Tomi Owó seeks to woo, to seduce the listener infatuatedly with her vocal charm, caressing the listener’s soul with the soothing frequencies, affording them the needed security to open their hearts whence she momentarily deposits the potency of her lyrics into their soul.

Art is a very subtle means of evangelism because it preaches without judgement and inspires without coercion. Consequentially, art is able to achieve this effect because it inspires, and what would inspiration be if one was not able to draw essence from the individualism of the creator. This implies that True art must embody the spiritual signature of its creator.
