Rendered on a repurposed rug, the plant becomes a symbol of constrained growth: how we expand even when rootbound, even when the space given isn’t enough.

The background’s soft, hazy gradients evoke a domestic stillness, while the coarse textile whispers of everyday survival. This piece gently reminds us that becoming isn’t always beautiful—but it is always brave.

In Still Growing, Dreü Wolé transforms household textiles—flat-woven rugs and everyday materials—into sacred spaces for visual storytelling. Each piece serves as both relic and reflection: documenting the tender, often invisible work of becoming.

This collection sits in the tension between the domestic and the divine. Wolé explores what it means to grow in environments that aren’t always nurturing, to thrive under emotional weather, and to confront selfhood in solitude. Figures return to homes, sit beneath windows, and live beside potted plants—all metaphors for cultivating inner worlds in real-time.

Despite the shadows or silence, these paintings carry the quiet optimism of survival, of progress, of being still here—and still growing.
