A Painting titled Aka Jehovah II by Zinno Orara |
Through out the period of the battle of Adaora
against breast cancer, her husband, Orara
nearly "shut down" his studio for almost seven years. Died in
2014, Adaora who left behind four children of two boys and girls is being
celebrated by Zinno as Life's Journey, the artist's solo art exhibition,
showing from November 25 - December 4, 2017 at Terra Kulture, Victoria Island,
Lagos.
Properties sold, drugs worth N197,000 per week
were bought, among several
efforts to rescue Adaora from cancer, Orara recalled
ahead of the exhinition's opening. However, there appeared to be something for
Orara to be joyful over. "Two of our children have graduated after my
wife's death."
In paintings such as 'Thoughts Of You' 2017;
'Eyes of Faith', 'Aka Jehovah ll' 2016, 'Strength of Unity' and 'Should be in
School' among others, there are so much the artist has to share.
In May this year, Orara
made his major group exhibition since the death of his wife. It was the debut
edition of The Content art exhibition, curated by Onabanjo, at Adam&Eve,
GRA, Ikeja, Lagos.
