Life and Me delves into the intimate journey of resilience and self-reliance, capturing the grit and inner strength that propel us forward regardless of the weight of our past or the uncertainty of our present. This track confronts the universal quest for hope, echoing the expectation others often hold of us—how far we’ll go, how unyielding we’ll be. But at its core, Life and Me is a declaration: the recognition that salvation lies within. We are, ultimately, the heroes we seek, capable of shaping our own destinies and confronting life’s trials with unwavering resolve.
The artwork engages themes of identity, displacement, and self-search. Aksanti B., 2003, is a Congolese refugee artist based in Kampala; his work explores his life as a young refugee male who steps off his like, trying to make meaning with the space he interacts with and the people he meets. He shapes his dream with one brush stroke at a time. His work was exhibited at the UN headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.Â

As little children, our parents used to take us to the playgrounds to swing. Every child loved to be at the playgrounds. We made a lot of new friends and also meet old ones too. These memories are still in my head and that’s why I am able to paint them. – Ninsima

Every animal deserves to have a home. A place where it can sleep without being disturbed. This artwork is about a birdhouse that community members built for a bird that woke them up every day. This story was from a book that I read, but I don’t remember the name. What I recall is how beautiful the bird was and its house too. – Swabura
