Some people are here say that they are not impressed. Who cares?

I know the man and met him before, he is internationally known and could care less what some little bleep think.

Illusion of grandeur is really worrying people sha.

Because someone post about success to encourage others doesn't mean people with low taste in that area should come and spew their "poverty ridden" views.

Only people who never chop will see good art and say "Is that food?", "Can I eat it?", "Who that one epp?" and other low IQ questions...

If you are new to art or don't appreciate it, just go to other food news, some BB naija or Lazy youth news.

This is real talent in display. A Nigerian mutimedia artist, painter and sculptor, Dotun Popoola, is in the limelight again for his rare ability to assemble scrap metals and convert it into artwork. The young man whose father is an automobile mechanic - created a hybrid Boerboel out of scrap metals and even a chicken.

Once any of his sets packs up, he converts its scraps into artwork, the beauty of which can be so stunning that it has won the Auchi Polytechnic and Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife-trained artist acclaim.

In one of the posts made on his social media page, the talented young man explained what he does. Read below;

Metal sculpture is becoming so interesting as artists are now taking critical study of Their materials. with the recent involvements in upcycling, we were able to select metals of different properties. Ferrous metals like iron, cast iron, mild steel, medium carbon steel, high carbon steel, stainless steel and high speed steel.

Non-ferrous metals include aluminum, brass, copper, nickel, tin, lead, and zinc, as well as precious metals like gold and silver. While non-ferrous metals can provide strength, they are primarily used where their differences from ferrous metals can provide an advantage. The exploration continues as the search progresses in our recent involvement in upcycling.

We went junking and was able to select the best of metals and aloys. It's a great privilege to work with other amazing metal sculptor.

Really?

You call this mediocrity? I pity your entire generations because of your evil infested life.

Can you show us anything better than this from your lineage. Because of your hatred and stewpidity for other tribes other than you tribe, every other tribe is bad? That is why you will forever remain 2nd class citizens in Nigeria

I laugh at your outright stupidity. ....just like the artist and his mediocre products, you all are trash.
Wait a minute, you(a common Yoruba demon) called a full fledged igbo man "second -hand citizen" ? Hahahaha...once again i laugh at your foolishness, a tribe that everyone uses to achieve what they want.for instance, northerners use you to get to power,whereas Easterners use you to expand their market,and ypu fail to realize that you are irrelevant in this country.
Did i hear you ask him to show you what we can produce? Well i guess you are not serious with that question, however if you are,i guess INNOSON motors is the least i can say here.
Do you still need more?

But please,name one product you guys take to the market.....i Promise to buy you beer,if ypu can.
