Art Story Abstract Art
ABSTRACT PAINTING: PATH TO NO WHERE BY MIABO ENYADIKEAbstract Art Paintings, 'A Path To No Where' was an abstract painting series, commissioned by a young art collector. He had collected quite a bit of my work and supported my abstract painting style, but nothing this big.
When I got the call from him saying he was looking for Abstract Art pieces to cover the huge blank walls in his new apartment, he thought about me.
He referenced my use of colors in an unabashed way that he liked, and that he needed vibrant, colorful, abstract art paintings, in his new home. I have made those types of very Colorful Abstract Paintings before and they have all been collected privately, so I understood what he meant.
Create something he said, that is abstract, colorful but with meaning.I did that but with a cause dear to my heart, Climate Change. Two large 4 m x 8 m abstract paintings where commissioned and the work went on and I finished. They where later shipped and installed in his Apartment far away in Lagos.
A 'Path To No Where' is an Abstract Art Painting about our environment and how preservation with education about our planet is important. Especially with the oil pollution and air pollution, right now out there, there seems to be no path way.
As we watch our planet disintegrate whether we belief in climate change or not, there are certain factors and elements that make it difficult for us to estimate these damages, that occur through severe natural disasters and man made manufactured errors. These factors are borne out of denials, as to the real existence of climate change.
These abstract paintings might look Colorful and Vibrant but the story behind it is bleak and one that is a cause dear to my heart.
These abstract paintings with bold colors, infusing together in a rather raucous way, depicts the volatile rage of forest fires, hurricanes, mass flooding, excessive heat.
The painted lines indicate barriers and boundaries broken, as indicators of the danger and damage we are faced with. I have made several abstract painting series on this subject of natural disasters and climate change.

The gold leaves on one of the Abstract Painting are not actual gold, but indicate a sparse vegetation in the future, due to burned out landscape and terrible heat waves, whereby it will become terribly expensive to keep and maintain a green leafy, lush forest, and vegetation.
These elements might bring about, whereby green vegetation will be golden and difficult to come by because of deep damage to the earths natural composition from these disasters
We need green vegetation like the amazon to remain intact, this is good for the planet as it absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and releases good oxygen, in the years going forward...I can only imagine what lies ahead!
This was all in my thought process when I made this Art, my client works in the oil industry,huge irony!
but I felt a nice colorful reminder is not too bad.
My client was satisfied, that is what matters after all...he knows its Abstract Art...Enjoy
