My work is mostly a psychological look into everday life and its relative resemblance to people everywhere around the globe. I am inspired most frequently by women and particularly African women. In Africa women feel more inferior or are treated as such in some tribes where it has been long decided that a woman’s place is in the kitchen, running the house, being mothers and rarely career women. Reacting to this, my work has therefore been a celebration of women as strong individuals, despite their environmental constraints.

Using colour as my primary tool, my work is more expressionist and I use colour to build a bridge between me and my audience. I want the audience to react to what they see and feel when they look at the work. I want to engage the audience to react in whichever way, be it by passionately liking the art or hating it. The reaction itself will have achieved the purpose the art work was created for. My culture is very much an intergral part of my work and with so many taboos within my culture and rigid ways of life I feel that we are all similar irrespective of our backgrounds, creed, race or religion. My work is normally semi abstract rendering life as see it rather than how it really is. The works tend to be amorphous.

My technique is impasto i like the thickness of paint in my work as i feel like a sculptor working on a two dimensional plane creating life in my own way using colour to celebrate our lives as women.
