Despite the initial challenges, Faith’s commitment to her newfound path saw her seeking mentorship under the guidance of Uzoma Samuel and later, the esteemed Wallace Ejoh. Under their tutelage, she overcame her struggles with color, concept, and technique, gradually carving out a unique identity on canvas.
Faith’s works are now celebrated for their depth and distinct voice, earning her a place among the most sought-after rising artists in Nigeria. This exhibition is a homecoming for Faith, a return to the city where her artistic journey began. Additionally, we also intend to use this showcase as a testament to Benin’s enduring influence in the Nigerian art scene, highlighting its role in nurturing both male and female artists of exceptional talent. As you explore the pieces on display, you are invited to witness the transcendence of an artist who has turned challenges into masterpieces, and whose journey continues to inspire.
