Omar Victor Diop
Né en 1980 à Dakar, Sénégal.
Omar
Victor Diop was born in Dakar in 1980. Since his early days, Omar
Victor Diop developed an interest for Photography and Design,
essentially as a means to capture the diversity of modern african
societies and lifestyles. The quick success of his first conceptual project Fashion 2012, le Futur
du Beau which was featured at the Pan African Exhibition of the African
Biennale of Photography of 2011 in Bamako (Rencontres de Bamako)
encouraged him to end his carrer in Corporate Communications to dedicate
to photography in 2012.
Omar Victor Lives in Dakar, his body of work includes Fine Arts and
Fashion Photography as well as Advertising Photography. He enjoys mixing
his photography with other forms of art, such as costume design,
styling and creative writing. His
work is interrogative and intriguing, prospective, yet a tad vintage
and draws inspiration from Diop's international uplifting, as well as
his african visual heritage.
