I stared at the man with keen interest, hoping to know more about what life has in store for me. The man looked at me sternly, and I couldn’t be more convinced he had seen everything, including my afterlife. A strange language jolted me back to reality as I realized the lady in the room had arrived at the intersection where "Malaicha" and other spirits were. I watched in confusion as the man quickly scribbled down what appeared to be an interpretation of the foreign tongue. My patience dwindled per second as the man kept penning down words. To shorten a long story short, the interpretation was presented in bold letters. My background was also written as additional proof of the veracity of the "spirit." I became eager to know the way forward. "Abeg, Sir, and Ma help my life." "I want to come out of my family's shackles and enemies," I pleaded. They exchanged a knowing look as if they’d been anticipating this moment. My pockets started running dry while my anxiety spiked. I was told to join their religion and denominations. Of course, it’s preferable to go from "God" to "God" in spiritual warfare. I wish to go back to the point of ignorance, where no one was after my life and every day was another day to conquer. A few months later, I realized that to see beyond any circumstances, we must be at ease and calm; we are better able to discern people’s motivations. To see beyond is to see with our inner eyes rather than filthy, unknown eyes. To see beyond is to remain steadfast in personal prayer and to hold out hope that your prayers will be heard. To see beyond is to see beyond the limitations of flesh, realizing that you are gods.

Beyond the Limits is a work that explains what youth in a developing country goes through. Most youth who have to experience the squalor of a developing economy are characterized by wholesale dejection and despair with many of them resorting to drug use and various crimes that jeopardized their lives. Many cannot see a future beyond their present abode. Artist Busari Adewale...

"Impresser" is an intriguing artwork that captures the essence of competition, skill, and the desire to impress. This piece of art depicts a man playing snooker with exceptional skill, in the presence of a lady who is watching him intently. The artwork showcases the man's confidence and mastery of the game, as he strives to impress the on-looking lady with his abilities. This work is inspired by the rate of ability Men display to impress a lady they've fallen for. Moses Ndubuzo came to the realization that Men (who don't know much about women) do things with style and often incredible things when a crush is around the corner, just like showing off, but this time it's natural. The man in the artwork is shown in a moment of intense focus, as he lines up his shot on the snooker table. His body language exudes confidence and skill, and his expression suggests that he is fully immersed in the game. The lady, on the other hand, is shown standing at a distance, watching the man with a curious and fascinated expression. She is dressed in elegant attire, which adds to the ambiance of the scene, and her presence seems to be the focal point of the man's efforts. This creates a sense of visual interest and draws the viewer's attention toward the lady, who is the center of the man's attention. The lighting in the artwork is also skillfully done, with the snooker table being illuminated, creating a sense of focus on the game. The artwork's title, "Impresser," is aptly chosen, as it encapsulates the man's desire to impress the lady. This desire is a common human trait, as people often seek to impress others with their skills, talents, and abilities. The man's mastery of the game of snooker is a testament to his dedication and hard work, and his desire to impress the lady reflects the universal desire to be recognized and appreciated for one's achievements. Overall, "Impresser" is a captivating artwork that speaks to the human experience of competition, skill, and the desire to impress. Its use of colors, lighting, and symbolism creates a sense of visual interest and draws the viewer into the scene. This artwork is a testament to the power of art to capture human emotions and experiences, and its ability to connect people across time and space. Whether one is a snooker player or not, "Impresser" is an artwork that is worth experiencing.
