About the Item

In "Deserving More," the central figure, a man, sits solemnly on a chair, his gaze piercing through the canvas to meet the audience's eyes. A subtle sadness etches his features, reflecting the inner turmoil depicted in his eyes. With one hand, he clutches a book titled "I Deserve More," its cover adorned with an abstract figure, embodying the complex emotions and thoughts swirling within his mind. The painting captures the essence of the written narrative, portraying the struggles of the human experience. The man's poignant expression speaks of a life filled with ups and downs, where societal pressures and self-doubt weigh heavily on his shoulders. Despite his yearning for better circumstances, he finds himself grappling with the harsh realities of existence. Through the symbolism of the book and the man's contemplative demeanor, the painting encapsulates the universal longing for fulfillment and recognition of one's worth. It invites viewers to empathize with the man's journey, acknowledging the inherent desire for a life that aligns with his aspirations and dreams. "Deserving More" serves as a visual testament to the resilience of the human spirit, urging viewers to reflect on their own struggles and aspirations.

Resilient Beauty

By Bakare Abubakri-sideeq Babatunde

Located in Ibadan, Oyo

The painting is a stunning portrait of a black African woman with an intricate afro hairstyle that dominates the canvas. The use of vibrant oil colors on Ankara fabric gives the painting a rich texture and a sense of depth as if the woman is emerging from the fabric itself. The woman's gaze is direct and unwavering, conveying a sense of strength and resilience in the face of adversity. The Ankara fabric, a traditional African textile, adds a cultural dimension to the painting, highlighting the importance of heritage and identity. The combination of traditional fabric and contemporary art techniques makes the painting a unique and powerful piece that celebrates the beauty and strength of black African women. The painting invites the audience to appreciate the rich cultural heritage and diversity of Africa and to recognize the beauty and power of African women.
