Ìdìbáwá speaks to becoming, not as an isolated act, but as something shaped within language, culture, and shared memory. It reflects a state of being formed through what is inherited, what is carried, and what is chosen.

This body of work moves between presence and introspection, tracing the tension between collective identity and individual self-definition. Through portraiture and symbolism, it considers how meaning is placed upon the body sometimes quietly, sometimes forcefully and how that meaning is negotiated over time.

Within these works, identity is neither fixed nor singular. It is layered, evolving, and often unspoken. Ìdìbáwá becomes a space to confront that process where belonging and becoming exist at once.
