My grandma always uses the well known african tune to draw my attention to water with a usual statement "Water is Life". I got to know that she is correct because water acts as both a solvent and a delivery mechanism. It is an essential part of growth and a mechanism to see tomorrow. 

Having water beside my creative work symbolises how most water bodies have lost their essense due to pollution which is very common in Africa with plastics on water.

I included a green vegetation to spite the fact that natural food has their medicinal value which they havn't yet lost it's relevance in some part of Africa especially West Africa. They can easily plant and source food from their surrounding solving Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs) most especially SDG 1, 2 and 3(No Poverty, Zero Hunger and Good Health and Well-being).

Reading over the theme of this submission, I was drawn back to my root. Deep down the soil of a rooted igbo culture and how my garndma cared less about what was in the mind of others. The state of insecurity wasn't her problem and the warmth her hut gave was far better than the cemented storey building of our family house.
