This piece depicts a moment of deep contemplations in time. A state of deep thoughts and absent mindedness. It is a visual expression of a part of the things I see in my society, represented in a stylized form.
It captures an unknown moment, a time when the mind is bothered or a time when the mind starts thinking of a solution to hard life and manual labour
A moment of reflection, where the question – what next? comes up.
This piece is from my ongoing body of work titled hustle, and it sheds light on hard labour which is a means of livelihood to lots of people. In my city, young boys run after buses with their wheelbarrow just to help passengers carry loads and they survive on that everyday till they find something better. If they ever find something better. This work is meant to connect my audience to the everyday life they see but ignore. It is also meant to create an awareness that a life like this exists.

Half of a Yellow Sun By Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
Seller: GrammyBooksAn epic story of love and civil war set in Nigeria during the 1960s, Half of a Yellow Sun recounts the lives of three characters caught up in events larger than themselves. Ugwu, a young houseboy working for an idealistic university professor. Olanna, the professor’s mistress, and Richard, a British expatriate in love with Olanna’s twin sister, Kainene. Their relationships are thrown into jeopardy when Richard spends one drunken night with Olanna, and as the war escalates.
With Half of a Yellow Sun, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie firmly establishes herself as a most powerful storyteller and humanist, ”the 21st-century daughter of Chinua Achebe,” according to The Washington Post Book World.
The book has won numerous awards and accolades worldwide, including the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction in 2007.
