Carnival: The Early Years (2023)
This piece captures the vibrant, communal spirit of the early Carnival celebrations and reflects their profound historical importance for Caribbean and Black British communities. Carnival has roots deeper than the music, dance, and colourful costumes that fill the streets. For Black Britons, particularly those from the Windrush generation, Carnival was an act of cultural preservation, resistance, and resilience. This artwork honours Carnival as more than just an event but a tribute to generations who transformed adversity into an enduring celebration of life, culture, and freedom.
Naija Hall Party: A Tapestry of Celebration (2024)
This piece captures the energy and unity of Nigerian hall parties as as a shared cultural experience in Nigeria and the diaspora.
In Nigerian culture, hall parties are expressions of identity and solidarity, where people come together to celebrate milestones and achievements. From live bands filling the room with music to the symbolic act of spraying (throwing money) as a gesture of prosperity and respect, every detail conveys the shared joy and cultural pride.
Notes of Heritage (2026)
The first portrait in this two part series explores the African roots of jazz and the generations of musicians whose traditions shaped the sound we recognise today. Drawing from West African musical heritage, it reflects on music as a carrier of memory, identity and cultural connection across the African diaspora.
The second portrait of the series explores the evolution of contemporary Afro-fusion through the musical traditions that came before it. From indigenous Nigerian rhythms and highlife to Afrobeat and today's global sounds, it celebrates how music can carry cultural heritage forward, connecting us to the people and histories that shaped what we hear today.
Identity
Shades of Noir (2023)
Shades of Noir is a digital portrait honouring the depth, complexity, and individuality of Black women. The faceless figure at its centre symbolises both the imposed invisibility and the shared, yet deeply personal, experience of Black womanhood. Her form is composed of multiple overlapping layers, abstract textures and tones, to represent the many roles, emotions, and histories she carries.
The absence of facial features is intentional. It challenges the viewer to look beyond the superficial and confront the tendency to generalise or flatten Black women into a singular narrative. Instead, this piece celebrates multiplicity. It acknowledges the softness, the power, the pain, the joy, the cultural inheritance, and the personal evolution that coexist within.
Masked (2024)
Masked is a digital artwork that explores the complex relationship between identity, emotion, and mental health. Through a series of illustrated masks, each bearing a distinct facial expression, the piece reflects the emotional fluctuations the artist has experienced over the past year. From joy and peace to anxiety and overwhelm, every mask reveals a different facet of an inner world often hidden from view.
The masks are not disguises, they are truths. Each one represents a moment, a mood, a part of the self that is valid and real. Arranged together, they challenge the idea that we are defined by any single emotion. Instead, Masked reveals that it is the full range of feelings that gives depth and meaning to who we are.
Both personal and reflective, this piece invites viewers to consider the many layers they carry. It speaks to the universal experience of wearing emotional “masks” to navigate life, while reminding us that embracing the full spectrum of our inner lives is an act of courage and self-acceptance.
An ‘03 Family Portrait (2022)
An '03 Family Portrait is an illustrated reimagining of a photograph featuring me, my sister, and my mum, taken during my childhood in Nigeria when I was just three years old. Though I don’t recall the moment the photo was captured, the image stirs a flood of memories from that year, fragments of life in Nigeria and reflections on the path my life might have taken had we stayed there longer. This piece serves as both a nostalgic tribute and a quiet exploration of identity, belonging, and the roads not travelled.
