Bare, raw, and stripped to essentials a slim figure leans forward, back turned, body exposed. It's not just form; it's metaphor. The Lean Startup boldly reinterprets the title of a popular business book, transforming it into visual commentary on vulnerability, beginnings, and the often-unseen weight of building from nothing. In this piece, there's no suit, no mask just the human foundation of every big idea.

His eyes are steady, his body calm, but behind the gaze, something stirs. Still, But Thinking captures a moment of inner weight, where thoughts speak louder than words. This is not a portrait of silence it's a portrait of the noise within. His face may be still, but his mind is miles away, walking through questions only he can hear.

She folds into herself,not in shame, but in protection. Her body, bare and vulnerable, becomes a sculpture of softness and strength. Unfolding Silence is not just about nudity, but about the quiet power of presence. It speaks of stillness, self-reflection, and the raw beauty found in being without performance, without defense. She may be folded, but she is not hidden.

Rendered in soft pastel and grounded in charcoal's raw truth, he stands not just as a figure but as a force. Inspired by the boldness of Jen Sincero and the vulnerability championed in Daring Greatly, Worthy of the Fight captures a man in quiet courage. His eyes hold fear, but his posture says he showed up anyway. This is confidence wrapped in self-reflection the kind that dares to feel and still move forward.

From her neck to her hips, she stands with quiet power hands on her waist, body turned slightly, claiming space. Her form is wrapped not in fabric, but in stories torn pages, headlines, history. Some speak loudly: woman, Olori Atunwase the queen who rewrites destinies. Her Body Holds the Story is a mixed media tribute to layered womanhood, where every piece of paper is a voice, a battle, a reminder. She's not just made of flesh she's made of memory.
