My work is a visual language that sits between historical tradition and modern abstraction. It invites viewers to engage in dialogue with forms and symbols.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in exploring the human condition. My work touches on themes of cultural memory, identity and shared human condition.
What would you do with $25,000?I plan to invest a significant portion of $25,000 into expanding my studio space that will allow me to scale up my work. Beyond stabilizing my own studio, I’m excited to use some of the finds to travel for cultural research that feeds inspiration for my work. I also want to pay it forward, by continuing to support and mentor young artists in Nigeria through my art foundation.
