Artist Statement:

I conceive life and living in
the context of our
relationships with the sacred
realm. Hence, my artworks and
creative efforts place man at
the center of function. With
the combinations of Western
and African motifs my arts are
made to rouse the conscience
of mankind, reclaim the human
race, and restore humanity and
the dignity of man. For my
Paintings, I use acrylic, oil,
watercolor, pencil and mixed

works. For my Digital Arts, I
use computer and scanning
technology and for my
Sculptures, I use cement and
fiber. I saturate my works
with stunning and imposing

using connotative images to
show hidden force using themes
that emphasize my sufferings
as a struggling artist. For me
carrying on the old
conventions is not enough.
Although I take them into
account, I also seek
inspiration from the life
around me in order to make the
traditions serve modern times.
As life reveals to me its
fresh meanings, I find it
difficult not to reflect on
them. All in all, I am either
stimulated by my personal
experiences of life or by
environmental, touching,
mind-purifying and
life-consoling experiences to
