HAPPENING:
Here are a couple of my pieces in the exhibition ‘How High The Moon’ which is currently showing at @elsewhereart_ gallery in NYC
The show was curated by @artstolife.world and features several incredible artists whose work I admire
It is open for one more week so definitely check it out if you are in New York!
Plus, several pieces from the exhibition are still available—I’ll share a link in my stories for anyone looking to collect.

“If everyone is a product of this society, who will say the things that need to be said, and do the things that need to be done, without compromise?”—Lauryn Hill.
Which truths are you turning a blind eye to just to conform, or to hold on to certain comforts, or simply because you’re afraid to confront reality? Let’s talk.

You should take a look at the @afroscope Instagram, when you love these abstract kind of collage arts. Love the deep colours that reminds us of the Rwandese sand. #art #collage #sun #moon #earth #african #afriek #afrieksuits #inspiration #prints

At first glance you look at me, judging what you think is missing. Beauty is the symbol in the length of my neck. Stretched high so I can see all coming from what orbits around me

Wake up! 'SLEEP NO MORE' by the homie @saintkwam is out! On this EP, Saint Kwam dissects the distinct, telling phases in his musical development & shares his unique perspective on what it's been like navigating the rap, hip-hop space as a Ghana-man charting his own course in America, his birthplace. It's a genuine story of understanding identity & place through energetic creative expression, & sheds light on Saint Kwam's journey in a way never before seen (or heard). It's serious yet mad fun, god-like on the wordplay & is altogether LIT 🔥 Go listen, the link is up there ☝🏾

'Loz’Ọṣun'
.
.
Ọṣun, is an orisha, a spirit or deity that reflects one of the manifestations of God in the Ifá and Yoruba religions. She is one of the most popular and venerated orishas.
.
.
Ọṣun (Oshun) was the only female irunmole (primordial) sent to set up the world by Olodumare (one of the three manifestations of the Supreme God). The other males that were sent began the work and ignored Ọṣun. Ọṣun gathered the women and protested the blatant disrespect by forming Iyami Aje, a band of women endowed with special power.
The men failed miserably and when they inquired to Olodumare as to why they weren't succeeding, Olodumare informed them that nothing can be done with out Ọṣun. Anything they attempt to do without women will fail. The male irunmole hurried to beg Ọṣun to join them.
.
.
Ọṣun is the Yoruba deity of the river and fresh water, luxury and pleasure, sexuality and fertility, and beauty and love. She is connected to destiny and divination. Her devotees leave her offerings and perform ceremonies at bodies of fresh water such as rivers, streams and canals.
.
.
Ọṣun is associated with the colours gold/deep yellow in the diaspora and in Nigeria, white, yellow and green. In Trinidad she is associated with the colour pink.

'Half of a Yellow Sun'
.
.
.
"The novel takes place in Nigeria prior to and during the Nigerian Civil War (1967–70). The effect of the war is shown through the dynamic relationships of five people’s lives including twin daughters of an influential businessman, a professor, a British citizen, and a houseboy. After Biafra's declaration of secession, the lives of the main characters drastically changed and were torn apart by the brutality of the civil war and decisions in their personal lives." -- Wiki
