Inner flame
C$8,000
Art, for me, is a journey into the essence of existence—a pursuit of beauty, connection, and unseen forces. Through oilstick paintings, I explore abstraction as storytelling, where vibrant color and fluid forms merge into dynamic compositions that shift with perception. My work, often best viewed from a distance, reveals textured emotions and figures that celebrate identity, resilience, and human strength, especially centered on African female forms.
Inspired by the expressive strokes of Van Gogh and the luminous softness of Monet, I embrace movement, imperfection, and suggestion, blurring boundaries between abstraction and form. At the heart of my practice lies a fascination with how perception constructs meaning from fragments, inviting introspection and unity beyond cultural divides.
My painting "Inner Flame" embodies this vision—a vibrant portrait of a woman radiating fierce passion and energy. Clad in a flowing gown, her confident pose and bold colors symbolize freedom, creativity, and the unrelenting drive to pursue one’s dreams. Combining oilstick expressiveness with abstract fluidity, "Inner Flame" celebrates the transformative power of passion. Through this work, I invite viewers to awaken their own inner fire and embrace the pursuit of their deepest.
