About the Item
'Listen, I am here' is an art Gbenga Eniafe created from the realities of his people. The everyday creative is overlooked even as he presses on. The purple represents his distinctive and excellent skills, his diligence, and his abilities he wears right but he is still overlooked. In Africa, skill is not enough; you must command presence or you will be overlooked.

About Artist
Born in Lagos (Nigeria) in 1994 and based in Abeokuta, Nigeria. Eniafe Gbenga Michael is a self-taught contemporary visual artist whose work has strong roots in soul-impersonating patterns, expressionism, and figurative realism. Eniafe Gbenga is a graduate of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta with a B.Agric degree in Animal Nutrition and Feed Technology.
Eniafe started out with doing portraits before having a keen interest in body art and face painting using pattern representations of different lines where he later had the opportunity to work with a past political President, a State Governor, a special adviser of a state government, a TEDx event and a notable Bank; all in Nigeria while studying for a degree.
With no formal education in visual art, Eniafe has mastered his craft to a reasonable extent with steady practice, on-field experience, and consistency. Drawing inspiration from his personal experiences and happenings in his society, Eniafe Gbenga's works are based mainly on storytelling, black identity evaluation, Power, and re-addressing racial opportunity sharing.
