In this original work, Kader Boly explores the quiet exchange between two beings—one exhaling, the other inhaling—capturing a moment of balance, rhythm, and mutual dependence.

The composition unfolds as a dialogue between opposing yet connected forces. Breath becomes a metaphor for energy—given, received, and continuously shared. The two figures exist in harmony, not as identical forms, but as complementary ones, each completing the other.

Interwoven throughout are the animal and livestock motifs that define Boly’s visual language, grounding the piece in themes of instinct, survival, and ancestry. These elements blur the line between human and animal, suggesting that connection exists beyond form—it is felt, lived, and inherited.

Rendered in clay, acrylic, and oil pastel, the surface carries a rich, tactile depth. Layers of texture and expressive linework create movement within stillness, echoing the cyclical nature of breath and relationship.

Compatibility is both intimate and expansive—a reflection on partnership, energy, and the unseen exchanges that bind us. It brings a sense of balance, warmth, and quiet connection into a space.

Medium: Mixed media, utilizing clay, acrylics, and oil pastels on canvas. 
Size: 60"W x 40"H

About Kader Boly
Kader Boly is an artist whose work is deeply rooted in his upbringing in Sabce, a village in northern Burkina Faso. Born into a Fulani family of nomadic herders, Boly spent his childhood guiding sheep, goats, and chickens across the plains in search of greener pastures. As the youngest of nine children, and one of only a few in his village to attend school, his early life was shaped by both responsibility and reflection.
Living in close communion with animals and the natural world, Boly developed a profound emotional bond with the land and its rhythms. The beauty of the rainy seasons, the hardships of the dry months, and the fragility of life left lasting impressions. While he loved the lifestyle for the connection it gave him to nature, he also felt a growing restlessness and desire for change, questioning a future that seemed predetermined.
At twelve years old, Boly began drawing as a way to process his thoughts, emotions, and surroundings - an early act of self-expression that would quietly chart his path forward. At twenty, he left West Africa for France, carrying with him the memories, philosophies, and visual language shaped by his childhood.
Today, Boly’s work reflects this journey: a dialogue between heritage and transformation, nature and introspection. His art serves as both preservation and exploration—honoring where he comes from while giving form to the expansive vision that first compelled him to create.

Amazing guide for life
Format: Kindle
In 12 Universal Skills: The Beginner's Guide to a Successful Work Life, Peter Scheele and Nina Bech-Andersen stress the significance of interpersonal skills for achieving success in both personal and professional spheres. These skills, known as "soft skills," "essential skills," "human skills," or "universal skills," are crucial. The authors offer practical guidance and techniques to enhance individual effectiveness, covering essential areas like time management, communication, decision making, job hunting, and goal setting. Although the book's content may seem obvious, it goes beyond explaining what and why, providing actionable advice on how to improve productivity. The book is not only suitable for beginners but also for business professionals aiming to enhance their interpersonal abilities. As an adjunct professor of leadership at esteemed universities, I highly recommend "12 Universal Skills" as an excellent resource that equips students with the tools they need to succeed both now and in the future.

Covers lots of important topics
Format: Kindle
12 Universal Skills by Peter Scheele and Nina Bech-Andersen is one of those books that comes across as something that should be taught in a college level classroom. If I was going to rename the book, I would call it How to Work With People. This is a general skill that we never really learn much about, but so much of our lives both professionally and personally are based around this idea. Some of the topics included here are how to solve conflicts with others, how to manage your time, and how to work as part of a team. These are skills that we are expected to practice as we make our way through school, but are never truly taught to us making them areas of weakness that need to be addressed. If you are starting a career, just getting out of school, or are simply looking for ways to improve yourself then this is a a great read for you.
