The Prophecy, 2020

Fine Art print, unframed, Unique in each size
When COVID-19 hit Nigeria, it was only a matter of time before people started seeking protection in religion. The wave has become so much so that while practitioners of African Traditional Religion claim to have a solution for anyone who gets infected, practitioners of Christianity are also selling the same message.
Part of the series called COVID-19: A GENERAL STATE OF ANXIETY.
’The works in the series engage with subjects who are navigating the realities of living in the global pandemic, COVID-19. I have documented history through this work, especially as it relates to how the pandemic has affected lives in my home country Nigeria.
The artworks specifically explore the various states of anxiety that has been prevalent as a response to the pandemic. For example, while some subjects are overwhelmed with ennui, others are looking for a way to stay alive during the pandemic – hence the embracing of spirituality/religiosity as means of salvation.’ - Osinachi
