About this work
A moody abstract landscape titled At the shore (Ebute) explores the transitional threshold of a Yoruba coastal harbour through dark, atmospheric brushwork and reflective white palette-knife strokes reminiscent of churning water. Incorporating frayed burlap, hanging threaded net patch, and subtle architectural lines alongside a spot of vibrant yellow, the mixed-media piece captures the gritty, industrial essence of a dockland shore while evoking themes of labor, memory, and coastal life.
