- Description
- Inspired by Afrobeat video culture, this painting celebrates the voluptuous blend of tradition and urban style in Africa. Rendered in illustrative style she embodies the fusion of heritage and modernity. Vibrant colours merge contemporary aesthetics with African heritage where intricate batik patterns ground the piece in cultural significance. Her hairstyle re-frames Western portraiture norms with a bold afro-sheek sensibility. Eucalyptus leaves frame her profile, symbolizing African origins.
