“Awarded” and “Advisors” both depict groups of figures whose incomplete silhouettes are made of cutouts of bark cloth and other textiles, some of them covered in acrylic paint. Faces and torso are half hidden behind a lace-net net fabric.


The titles of the works emphasise that these groups belong to a successful elite. Yet they are trapped, as anyone would be, caught in a net that they cannot control. The painter, (himself a multiple award- winner) may well be among them. Sekajugo expresses the feeling of existential angst felt by Millennials, even by those who are seen as socially successful. There is a suggestion that they have inherited issues they feel powerless to deal with ; among those, the degradation of their environment and the negative impacts of climate change
