Coastal Ride
$6,000.00
Costal Ride immerses the viewer in the water corridors of an over-water settlement, framed by aged wooden stilt structures and interconnected bridges. A lone boatman in a radiant golden-orange shirt stands tall at the stern of an empty dugout canoe, skillfully punting his way across the water. The essence of the piece lies in its quiet dignity—documenting a moment of navigation through the waterways of Makoko, where the canoe functions as sidewalk, road, and lifeline.

Artist Statement
Through dense, sculpted marks and deliberate points of illumination, I translate the visual complexity of urban life defined by movement, atmospheric shift, human adaptability and resilience. I work primarily in a restrained, architectural palette punctuated by vivid focal points to mirror the sensory impact of the city — where streets transform into the unstoppable determination of its people.
