SCULPTOR ISAAC ALADEOGO made the biggest can portrait in the world.

January 10, 2018

The old Greece was made of two principal states; Athens and Sparta, the Spartan gloried in their Army while the Spartan gloried in their Arts. Till this day, The glory of every nation is their artistic heritage and the pride of their Army.

Like the magic of Arts, soldiers are spectacles amidst the civilian, even in their sacrificial super humanly attributes to protecting the nationalist. The value of a soldier ends not in their structural construction or their undefeatability and impregnability, but it ascends in the natural love from the masses that transcends comprehension.

There are some things about priceless value that an ordinary mind may not reflect until you have a rear privilege to spend 100 days with and without the soldier.

I titled this artwork AWÉ (100 days with and without the soldier). AWÉ is a conglomerate of nature that promises to unfold blissfulness and blossom grace. According to white man's understanding, AWÉ mean sacred respectfulness, fearful reverence, dignity and epiphany.

Soldiers are not stereotypic, but a compilation of deliberate elements that distinguishes one out a million, This has further enhance the vigour and the intellectuality of the Nigerian soldiers.

The process of forming Art can be liken to the training soldiers undergo, every art works turn magical when finished, they are never exhausted of being the perfect ornaments of the precious palace.

Thus; the best way to sincerely appreciate an hero is to visually and conceptually immortalize his image through stupendous and tremendous artwork.

Sculptor Isaac Aladeogo is most privilege once again to gain and regain spiritually and mentally from the advance connection to an innumerable super experiences of a Brigadier General, this is a journey from overlooked to overbooked, and it critically analyzes the significance of the material interplay.

This portrait being the most distinct and the biggest of its kind in the world was made with recycled can, it further portray a story line in the life gathered from fear and hope.

I trust the nature wouldn't have revealed this magnificent idea if the cause of study doesn't worth celebrating, thus, I am vindicated that a super natural man deserves a super natural gift, it is indelible, a clash of illuminous powers which I was inspired to administer.

In a simple sense, the royalty of Brigadier General K O ALIGBE ends not in his glorious handsomeness, as the arts unfold deep cause is his ability to control the wild regulation between quality discipline and humanity;

This creative work transcends conventional gift item but it tells stories of strength and joy through many years of serving Nigerians enthusiastically.
