Linger

Artist: Kemba Najuma Opio
Dimensions: 36 x 48 in
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
 
A moment of stillness, suspended just before transformation. Linger draws us into the quiet tension between what is and what’s about to be. With detailed line work and pattern repetition, Kemba Najuma Opio reflects on the beauty and function of nature’s design—where nothing is accidental, and every curve carries purpose.
 
At the center, a moth glows in earthy sienna tones, symbolizing change and the unseen shifts that occur both within and around us. White, web-like lines extend from its limbs and surrounding text, forming delicate circular patterns that evoke movement at a micro level. It’s a visual meditation on life’s liminal spaces—the in-between—where stillness holds as much power as momentum.
