''We had our ups and downs Sometimes we scream and shout I've seen you in your darkest hours But your light, it never went out We drag our history up We both know that it needs to stop, come on Hard words said out loud Fighting at the speed of sound We've been running down the same road for some time It's been tearing up my soul, I won't lie If you ever need a shoulder to cry You can put all of your troubles and worries upon me.'' -Jeremy Loops
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.
