About The Artwork

Through their abstract mixed-media compositions, the artist delves into the enduring impact of the transatlantic slave trade and colonialism on their ancestral homeland. Their visual expressions serve as metaphors, intricately weaving the echoes of decay and societal complexities of contemporary realities within the historical context.

Inspired by artists like Anselm Kiefer and Mark Bradford, the artist's creative process involves imbuing profound thoughts and meanings into the materiality and layered textures of their artworks.

Key themes prominently featured in their creations include Time, Memory, Black Consciousness, Self-Emancipation, and Identity. These thematic explorations invite viewers to engage with the intricate layers and complexities embedded within the artwork, fostering reflective dialogue on these profound concepts.
