Back Then I

2023 | Mixed Media On Canvas, Stretched On Wood Frame

This traditional artwork portrays the lives of Africans in earlier times, when a significant number of people lived in poverty. Despite the challenging circumstances, the artwork emphasizes the profound love and selflessness that existed within the community. It conveys the message that one does not need wealth or material possessions to extend support and care to others. Love holds more value than money. The artwork features traditional houses that predate the modern structures found in Africa today. Its purpose is to reconnect viewers with the cultural roots and provide a glimpse into the shelter of African heritage.
