    Abstract : « My art addresses my internal tension between my deep
    Abstrac
    love for Nigeria, my country of birth, and my strong appreciation for
    Western culture…The work deals with various themes but the
    overarching thread is that I’m availing myself of Western painting to
    seek out a new visual language. In my work disparate elements clash
    together to give rise to a distinctive yet cohesive whole. »
