"I Expect," serves as a potent invitation to dive into the narrative within the frame. The image of a young woman, dressed in jewelry that exudes elegance and sophistication, immediately captures the eye. Her adornments—exquisite earrings and a white necklace—hint at a longing for beauty, meaning, or something more profound. These symbols of refinement and grace offer a glimpse into the desires that lie within the heart of every individual.
Especially intriguing is the phrase that accompanies the artwork: "What is it you've been waiting for all these while? It's natural for humans to want more out of life. Being in expectation is evidence of hope...." These words shed light on the artist's intention, inviting viewers to consider the motivations behind their own anticipations and yearnings. The choice of earrings and a necklace as accessories in the artwork symbolizes the pursuit of both material and intangible desires—perhaps success, love, fulfillment, or personal growth.
Esinulo Chiamaka Praise's artistic expertise is evident in the careful composition and use of light and shadow in "I Expect." The contrast between the young woman's adorned neck and the muted background adds depth to the artwork, emphasizing the significance of her expectations against the canvas of her environment. This juxtaposition creates a visual narrative that captures the tension between individual aspirations and the world in which they unfold.
The phrase "Being in expectation is evidence of hope" serves as a profound reflection on the human condition. It acknowledges that hope is an inherent trait, a force that propels us forward, urging us to strive for something more significant. "I Expect" prompts viewers to introspect and consider the nature of their own expectations, connecting them to the collective experience of longing for a brighter future.
The young woman in the artwork becomes a mirror through which viewers can contemplate their own desires and the emotions associated with anticipation. The artwork doesn't merely depict a solitary figure; it captures a universal human sentiment that transcends cultural boundaries and personal backgrounds.
"I Expect" by Esinulo Chiamaka Praise stands as a testament to the ability of art to communicate the complexities of the human experience. Through visual symbolism and thought-provoking words, the artist invites viewers to recognize the universality of hope and aspiration. The artwork prompts us to reflect on the beauty of having expectations and the hope that drives us to reach for the stars. It is a reminder that amidst the uncertainties of life, the act of expecting embodies the enduring power of hope.

Presentation
Esinulo Chiamaka Praise is a comtemporary Nigerian painter. She hails from Mbaitoli, Imo state. A graduate of Fine and applied arts (painting), Imo State University, Owerri. Her painting “power tussle" was featured on the cover page of Mbari issue VI Magazine 2020. Another of her painting “black kink" was featured in Polemicalzine (an online magazine) for Black history month in 2021. Love your vessel international online exhibition for international women's day 2021, Reflect, Repair, Recover exhibition 2020, and "Conformation" organized by Speaking Art Forum in Enugu, Nigeria, 2022.
She is inspired by how human existence compliments time, which she depicts through her style. Her works try to define the essence of life with figurative expressions, by exploring complimentary and harmonious colors to create mood in her works. She fuses the African heritage and its cultural diversities into her works through the use of patterns on the costume of her subjects.

My art is my voice; it stands as an awakening to society. I try to capture the essence of life with time and how it relates to human relationships. My goal is to raise conversations on important issues affecting our present-day society through my works of art and make a positive change in the world.
