I have always been interested in human behaviours and how they affect us both positively and negatively.
I find myself pondering on social, political, and environmental issues, the pandemic and the unprecedented circumstances we are in now. These events influence my art, inspire me to bring joy and aesthetics to all.
My style of work, influenced by Uli body painting in eastern Nigeria in its curvilineal forms, gives me the utmost challenge and satisfaction. I wanted something more than painting on a regular canvas and so came up with the idea of irregular shaped, stretched canvases. I am fascinated by the process of bending and maneuvering wires with pliers into meaningful shapes and sewing intricate patterns onto them.
My studies do not need frames. I am always intrigued by the nuanced interpretations given of them.
