There is deep cultural, historical and spiritual legacy held within many, if not all the items that were taken from the continent, to be placed in museums outside the continent.

This stolen legacy has left vacancies in the collective memories of the people. And in effect, makes it hard for many Africans to connect to their past, histories, ancestors and legacies. And it further disconnects many of us from knowing who we truly are, psychologically and spiritually.

Our Stolen Legacy has far-reaching damaging effects beyond what is often discussed. Not knowing the legacy of our great forefathers and mothers, makes it impossible for us to know where we came from, and consequently who we truly are, and where we are going.

A lot of this legacy was stolen and is hidden from most Africans on the continent, because they are hidden in basements, or sitting in maximum-security class cages in museums outside the African continent. Thousands of miles away from their homes.

A LONG WAY FROM HOME collection image

The series is inspired by the thousands of African Cultural artifacts taken from the continent and currently held in museums around the world, away from its original owners. Most of these items hold immense cultural and spiritual value to us Africans, and is not just art. Most are physical mediums through which the indigenous African ancestors connected with the spirit realm, their ancestors and Gods. Removing these artifacts from their true homes disrupts these connections, causing immense spiritual, and consequent physical damage beyond imagination. It disconnects millions from themselves, their ancestors, their spirits, and God.

This is my ode and visual commentary on the destructive looting that has occurred across the continent for centuries. To shed light on the spiritual harm caused, by removing these artifacts from their rightful homes. These cultural, historical & spiritual items have been imprisoned for centuries, and it is time to set them free and return them home.
