About The Artwork
Emuobowu mean our talents, a precious gift in our hand. We should find and treasure it. The artist is inspired to make this series of painting when he lost his elder sister in 2003, during this time he was barely surviving when he got the new that his sister “Emuobowo” is very ill, and the doctors couldn’t give an accurate description of her sickness. She was diagnosed with various illnesses every time she visits the hospital and finally Epileptical. We did all we can with the little resource we had then. Yet 2 weeks before her death she came to visit me, knowing he barely survive. During these times he’ll go out do some awkward job and come home to be with her. One evening, after the prayer for her recovery, she told him never to give up your dreams, goals and ambition. She said talent is never enough until faith is built-in in what we do. A week later she died and those words are embedded in him.
