This painting portrays the artist in a green white green singlet, symbolizing Nigeria.

An oxygen tube runs across his nose, his body carries the marks of scars, and his left eye meets the viewer while the right is lost to struggle.

In his hand, a bouquet of flowers contrasts fragility with renewal, turning pain into a quiet symbol of resilience and hope.

The work is both deeply personal and universal, a testament to survival and the human spirit’s enduring will to breathe again.
