About the Artwork

Through my encounters with individuals perceived as ‘tough’ on Lagos streets, I’ve discovered that beneath their rugged exterior lies a shared humanity, revealing softness and sanity.

The Street and a Flower, reflects my perspective on identity and social bias, highlighting the impossibility of truly knowing someone from a distance.

This piece personifies the street and the lives of everyday individuals like myself, who find themselves in unexpected places.

Amidst the harsh realities, beauty and resilience thrive - a testament to the human spirit. I’m inspired by the ways people create meaning and happiness despite adversity, and I’ve come to realize that love, joy, and strength are universal qualities that transcend social class and circumstance.

Through this piece, I invite viewers to look beyond the surface, to challenge their own biases, and to see the flowers that bloom in the rough -
