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.

Last Shot
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
At the heart of "Last Shot" is a young woman, the central character of this evocative piece. She is fully absorbed in the game of snooker, her posture and facial expression revealing intense concentration and determination. The artist has deliberately obscured all the colored snooker balls, leaving only the white ball visible. This compositional choice draws the viewer's attention to the player's anticipation of her "last shot."
The backdrop of "Last Shot" is a dimly lit snooker hall, creating an atmosphere of suspense and intrigue. The faint glow of overhead lights accentuates the drama of the moment, casting shadows that add depth and complexity to the scene. The absence of details surrounding the white ball and the player's narrowed focus on it contributes to the overall feeling of precision and concentration.
"Last Shot" is a visual metaphor for life's critical moments—those decisive occasions when everything hinges on a single move. By obscuring the colored balls and leaving only the white ball visible, the artwork symbolizes the importance of making the right choices, even when faced with uncertainty and obscurity.
The young woman's unwavering focus on her last shot encourages viewers to consider their own pivotal moments in life. It prompts reflection on the significance of each action and the consequences that follow, reminding us that sometimes, a single move can determine the course of our journey.
