This painting was created by Evelyn, whom Land of Hope rescued 8 years ago.
It was a warm Sunday when Evelyn and her little brother, Abraham, went to church with their mother. During the service, the pastor suddenly accused them of being possessed by evil spirits. Overnight, they were rejected by their community, and some villagers even discussed ending their lives.
But their story did not end there.
Over the years, Land of Hope has worked tirelessly in their village to challenge harmful beliefs and create understanding. Slowly, attitudes began to change.
Today, Evelyn and Abraham are able to spend their school holidays with their mother again. What was once a story of fear, separation, and rejection has become a story of healing, reconciliation, and hope.
This painting is a powerful reminder that change is possible. That love can overcome fear. And that children who were once cast aside can find their way home again ❤️
Children’s Art
We use art education as a therapeutic tool in our work with the children’s mental health and emotional well-being.
For many of the children, talking about their trauma is difficult. Art classes provide a safe space where they can express feelings and experiences that are hard to put into words. Some children paint scenes from their past, while others focus on their dreams and hopes for the future.
What they all have in common is their remarkable talent. Many of the children have won art and talent competitions across Nigeria.
