The Elephant of Waste
This artwork transforms recycled waste into the form of an elephant, a striking symbol of strength, memory, and survival. By reshaping discarded materials into one of nature’s most majestic creatures, the artist challenges us to reconsider what we throw away and how it impacts the world we live in. The elephant, often seen as a guardian of the earth, becomes here a vessel of renewal. The waste that once polluted landfills and streets has been reborn into art, proving that even what is rejected can carry dignity, purpose, and beauty.

Hijab 3
This painting is a raw commentary on contradiction . The tension between outward beauty and inward
neglect.
In the foreground, Northern men are painted in striking red turbans, their faces dignified, almost regal.
The red fabric, rich and commanding, presents them as proud and decorated symbols of cultural identity,
status, and authority. To the casual eye, they are clothed in honor, carriers of tradition, guardians of
heritage. Yet, when we shift our gaze to the right, the truth breaks through the façade: a child, bare and
vulnerable, clings to a cow. The child’s nudity and frail state sharply contrast the ornamental beauty of
the men, exposing the neglect within the home while prestige is pursued outside.
The Mark of Courage
This artwork stands as more than a visual expression. It is a bold call to awareness on breast
cancer. The soft hues of pink represent compassion, hope, and the global fight against this
silent killer. The contrasting darker tones symbolize the fear, pain, and uncertainty many women
face when confronted with diagnosis.The central figure embodies resilience. A reminder that
early detection saves lives. The subtle imagery of the breast, highlighted with symbolic marks,
calls attention to the importance of self-examination, routine screening, and the courage to seek
treatment without delay.

Her Voice Her Seat
This artwork stands as a bold statement on the urgent need for women’s inclusion in political positions in
Northern Nigeria. It captures the tension between tradition and progress: a society rooted in cultural
identity yet held back by a system that sidelines half its population from decision-making.The imagery
emphasizes women not just as silent supporters, but as active leaders. Figures who can shape laws,
policies, and the future of their communities.
Blinded and Bound
This artwork confronts the viewer with the stark imagery of a figure blinded, in chains, and roped, a haunting symbol of oppression, silence, and captivity. The blindness represents the deliberate denial of vision and truth, where justice and freedom are kept hidden. The chains embody systemic restrictions; political, cultural, and social,that keep individuals, especially the marginalized, from rising to their full potential. The ropes signify control, the unseen hands of tradition, power, and fear that keep the victim restrained.
