Criticize Me if You Must, But My Collages Speak Lo

I don’t just make art; I live it. My collages are a reflection of who I am—complex, layered, and deeply rooted in truth. No myths, no masks, no idols. I’m a modern African man telling timeless stories through fragments of paper and pieces of my soul. This is my truth.

✨Am I taking God’s job??✨
As women we tend to take God’s job when it comes to our men. (Husbands, boyfriends, and partners) This responsibility gets so heavy that we break down and surrender to God, build back up, then take the responsibility back! It’s an ongoing cycle. That’s why we need to know what’s our job, what’s not

Two young women are smiling and holding hands in a grassy outdoor setting. Overlaid text reads "MY FAVORITE BIBLE VERSES RIGHT NOW" and "He wants you to read these, They showed up on your feed for a reason. Hes calling your name. God misses you" with colorful shapes and three yellow crosses.
A screenshot displays Isaiah 24 (MSG) titled "The Landscape Will Be a Moonscape," discussing God's control over the earth. Key verses are highlighted in green, and a handwritten note states, "Reminder: God has FULL control over your life. Let Go ❤️ Let God."
A screenshot shows Romans 2 (MSG) titled "God Is Kind, but Not Soft." Highlighted text discusses judgment and God's awareness of misdoings. A handwritten note asks, "How can you be one to judge when you've sinned as well?"
