Artist Statement:
We tend to become constrained
to our heritage and cultural
backgrounds but I think that
when culture dictates a lot in
our day to day lives, we
eventually lose our moral
values as subjected to the
world we live in today.
What does culture mean to you
or me? And who has the best
culture?
I have learned to believe that
Ethnocentrism has always been
the worst problem on the soils
of all humanity since the
genesis of man.
This has dismantled societies
and built up new cultures.
Some of us have lost our
cultural heritage and
assimilated new cultures and
others are born in a mixture
of cultures hence losing
cultural identity. Who is to
blame? It’s the modern world,
the Neo-global Change.
Even though I am born of men
and women whose blood is
rooted to the reaches of the
upper Nile or Areas of Ancient
Ethiopia and the Cameroon
Forests mixed, my work has
less to do with my ancestry or
cultural heritage. It’s about
my surroundings, experiences
and emotions. I have focused
so much on Change in Society
because it is rapid and solid.
My art is about social
conscience and healing.
