About Our Artist:
"I am a calm, humble, and quiet individual with a profound passion for arts and crafts. As a student, I frequently visited a local wood carver, Salihu, to witness the transformation of raw wood into beautiful objects. Recognizing my genuine interest, Salihu invited me to learn from him. In a relatively short time, I was able to complete carved items on my own. When my parents faced financial difficulties that prevented them from supporting my further education, I made the decision to continue honing my skills under Salihu’s mentorship and pursue a career in this field. My ultimate aspiration is to establish a successful art workshop, where I can provide employment opportunities to many and assist in combating the pressing issue of unemployment in my country."
