Amadou Opa Bathily

Dynamic and abstracted artworks come to life through the hands of Amadou Opa Bathily, an artist deeply connected to movement.

Born in Bamako in 1987, his journey into the world of art began in the lively setting of an art recycling workshop. Graduating with top honors from the National Institute of Arts (INA) and the Balla Fasséké Kouyaté Multimedia Arts and Crafts Conservatory (CAMM-BFK) in Bamako in 2015, Bathily's art captures the essence of movement and fabric.

His creations are a harmonious blend of hard and flexible materials, where the artist's hand meets the intricacies of the materials. Bathily's work has graced numerous group exhibitions and international fairs.

Working across various mediums, from painting to sculpture and installation, Bathily's art is a celebration of life's rhythm. It's a dynamic fusion of tradition and innovation, where fabrics become the canvas for human playfulness, journeys, and wanderings.
