The artist Tony Nwalupue explains this piece as a traditional illustration of the Yoruba culture, in which the celebration of life extends to whoever is celebrating success and victory. The Yoruba tribe of Nigeria are well known within Nigeria as people who love life and constantly celebrates in times of success and victory - merry making is the instrument of showing to the world their achievements and successes. After all is there any other better way? Life is once; live happily today, for you know not tomorrow.
