Afrophilia-X

The Scapegoat That Grew Wings

A visual mythology of exile, transformation, and the wings we grow in the dark. For the outsiders. The othered. The ones who survived.

At 17, Ochuko left Lagos with a suitcase and a sketchbook. No money. No connections. No safety net. What followed was hunger, exploitation, and a loneliness that carved itself into bone. And somewhere in that darkness, a transformation began.

A 150+ page illustrated novel: part memoir, part mythology, part prophecy. Fourteen chapters, with original artwork rendered in pen and pencil.
