Obiajulu

Inspired by the resilience and determination of the African child, Obiajulu, an Igbo word 

meaning My mind is at peace, celebrates strength born from struggle. Rendered in oil, gesso, and layered glazes, the work’s impressionistic textures give life to a young teenager’s radiant face, symbolizing hope amid adversity. Each stroke speaks of endurance, identity, and pride. This powerful piece honours the spirit of perseverance and the quiet confidence that comes from inner peace. Obiajulu stands as a reminder that joy and dignity endure, even in the face of hardship.
