Finding Serenity

Nigeria
Story
Finding Serenity was born during COVID lockdown when Yimika’s poem (Yimika is a producer and music artist from Lagos, Nigeria) moved me deeply. Inspired, I teamed up with friends to bring it to life, exploring peace in chaos and beauty in uncertainty.
Comment
I am deeply grateful for the acknowledgment of this small dream that has grown into something seen around the world. Created in Lagos, Nigeria, during troubling and uncertain times, this film is a celebration for me, a testament to turning a poem into a visual artifact. What once lived only in my mind now lives on screen, and that is a gift I will always cherish.
