"Roots of Identity" is a series of artworks that captures the essence of a nation's heritage, traditions, and legacies. It symbolizes the interconnectedness of the past, present, and future, illustrating the elements that define the national identity with significant historical artifacts, symbols, and cultural icons. These elements represent the foundations upon which the nation's identity has been built.
Each artwork in the series depicts different aspects of the nation's cultural heritage, and our legacy is the culmination of a life lived with purpose, leaving behind a trail of inspiration, progress, and positive change. Our roots of identity reflect the essence of who we are and what we stand for, resonating far beyond our lifetimes.
Various textures are used to create depth and richness, including layers of paint, fabric, and found objects that symbolize the diversity and complexity of the nation's cultural tapestry.
Overall, "Roots of Identity" is a visual representation of the enduring legacy and traditions that shape a nation's collective identity. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and celebrating cultural heritage.
