Face Your Fears 2
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
"Face Your Fears" by Simon Obeka is a thought-provoking artwork that captures the essence of courage and self-discovery. At its core, the painting features a young woman adorned in a striking red scarf, her expression poised and determined, as if ready to confront the challenges that lie ahead.
The title, "Face Your Fears," serves as a powerful invitation for viewers to confront their fears and embrace the journey of personal growth and empowerment. Through the symbolism of the red scarf, which can evoke feelings of passion, determination, and vitality, Obeka conveys the idea that facing one's fears is not only a daunting task but also an opportunity for transformation and renewal.
The woman's confident posture and unwavering gaze suggest a willingness to confront adversity head-on, embodying the resilience and inner strength required to overcome obstacles. Whether literal or metaphorical, her journey serves as an inspiration for viewers to confront their fears and pursue their aspirations with courage and conviction.
Obeka's artwork serves as a reminder that while fear may be a natural part of the human experience, it is through facing and overcoming our fears that we can unlock our true potential and live life to the fullest. "Face Your Fears" encourages viewers to embrace discomfort as a catalyst for growth and to embark on their own journey towards self-discovery and empowerment.

State of the Nation
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
He made the decision to go closer after hearing a disturbing noise coming from the upper room. When he arrived, he carefully pulled back the green curtain at the enormous room's entrance to reveal a frantic
scene. He was so shocked that he had to hold back his screams while holding his mouth shut with his left hand. It was impossible for him to say anything other than "God abeg.
Too scared and frightened to speak to us about what he had seen. But we can assure you that we are aware of what he saw and can even feel it. It's the " STATE OF THE NATION".
