About the Item
"Alone Not Alone" by Akinboye Akinola Peter is a striking artwork that unfolds a narrative of solitude, self-reflection, and the paradoxical connection found in moments of isolation. The central figure, a young man donned in a bold red dress, sits pensively on a chair, cradling a bottle of Four Cousins Alcohol in one hand and a red cup in the other.
The choice of the red dress adds a layer of visual intensity, symbolizing passion, courage, and perhaps a departure from societal norms. The juxtaposition of the vibrant red against the subdued tones in the background creates a sense of visual tension, inviting viewers to explore the emotional complexity within the piece.
The title, "Alone Not Alone," suggests a duality in the young man's experience. Despite his physical solitude, he is not truly alone. The presence of the two birds facing each other on the arm of the chair introduces a poignant metaphor. The birds, mirroring each other's gaze, symbolize a connection that transcends physical proximity, highlighting the idea that even in moments of isolation, we can find companionship and understanding.
The inclusion of the Four Cousins Alcohol bottle and red cup introduces an element of introspection and self-discovery. The young man's contemplative posture and the choice of these elements may hint at a journey of self-exploration, where moments of solitude become opportunities for personal growth and revelation.
"Alone Not Alone" is a testament to Akinboye Akinola Peter's ability to weave together symbolism and emotion, creating a narrative that resonates on multiple levels. The artwork invites viewers to reflect on the complexity of human experience, the courage to embrace individuality, and the unexpected connections that can be forged in moments of quiet introspection.

My Companion
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
My Companion is a painting that highlights the relationship that existed between human and their pet, especially dogs. The untold loyalty, devotion, love, intimacy, and friendliness are very evident in this painting. The love which humans cannot get from fellow humans is being received by animals.
My Companion shows that it is not gainsaying that humans receive succor from animals from time immemorial. The dog is seen imitating the lady by holding a flower just like the lady does. The icons and motifs generated from peacock feathers are weaved around the lady to reflect the elegance, pride, and independent status of the subject.
