Additional Information: Generations have come to pass, for each that comes, reaps and takes things we are familiar with. Our future gets Scaring when we look at shattered faces of the pasted on the ground, we still hold on that one familiar face left intact in the memory of our fore fathers.

About the Artist: Without the ability to visualize change, there is no growth; my work is largely on the subject of growth situating it in my locale. It explores social, cultural, economical and political trends within a larger context of the globe, I mostly depict the impact of modernization on the traditions of my fore fathers and how the future generations are reacting to it. Symbolically I represent traditions of my society with historical African masks whereas trends of modernity are represented by modern metallic masks on characters painted in an expression art style with earthy acrylic colours on canvas.

Shipping: Price includes shipping to buyers in the U.S. If buyer is outside the U.S., additional shipping charges may apply and will be calculated and payable after the sale and prior to shipment.
