Painting Description
?It was a struggle to give the youth hope to remain in dance as they couldn?t see a future in it ? especially because of the way ballet was seen as in Nigeria. It was less known [than other forms of dance], and everyone, including myself, was discouraged on a daily basis?. A direct quote from Esther Oladipupo, founder of the Association of Ballet Teachers of Nigeria, describes her pioneering efforts to bring ballet to aspiring students in her home country.
