Clay pots are commonly used for water storage in Africa and are an important houseware in many homes in the villages and other rural areas in Nigeria.  The uses of pots in different cultures also vary but the process of making them are similar across a board with minimal bodily designs and other form variations.  Adekusibe goes into the marketplace with his painting to show how the vessels make their journey from the base source (the clay) through fire into the marketplace as finished products.  This unspoken process stands as a metaphor for people’s journeys in live/humanity.   The entrepreneurial gifts of women as homemakers and partners in community services are not left out in this piece.
