Visual Arts at Oasis

 "Obey Oasis"


Using Shepard Fairey's Obey Giant street art project for inspiration, Oasis students created stencil self-portraits in the Fairey style with their own choice of text. Now these posters are circulating across Canada, with the help of friends of Oasis. Above are our students' faces sighted in Winnipeg Man. Keep your eyes peeled for more photos to come!
