The sculptural installation invites the viewers to reflect on the emotions, labour, and resilience invested into the craftiness  of these pieces and the history of aged beams and pillars (Azobe and Pine wood) that hold most architectural buildings, However the visibility of those forged metals, nails, and scars buried within the tissue of the timber leaves us in suspense, challenging us to imagine its past and the hands involved.  Era of TDC (Tema Development Company) is a reminder of my personal experience and childhood memories of  hard labour working together with my parents in the 90s. I have witnessed their fear, and emotions as they escape task forces.

Within the Netherlands, the materials utilized for these sculptures bear their own unique and significant history that I might not be familiar with but it immediately reminded me of hard labour, as certain beams date back to the era of slavery and colonialism. I was fascinated by their resistance to decaying  which eventually influenced and guided the ways I carved out figures as though I could see those laborers and families trapped in them.
