THE STORY
Back in 2016, Omar performed at iLive Soulfest in Toronto for the first time in 10 years. In addition to designing the branding surrounding that event, Adam Jarvis was invited to participate in an art show inspired by the music of Omar along with fellow Canadian Artists Georgia Fullerton and Komi Olaf.
That night, Adam (along with his Art Production Manager Natalie) premiered a series of 3D printed art that was warmly received. 5 years later, that original piece (which was never offered for sale) is finally available as part of an ultra-rare NFT package.
That art show was the beginning of a friendship and a mutual respect between 2 artists. This NFT crystalizes Omar's relationship with Canada and his fans from around the globe.
