African Circus Painting

Art offers us the possibility and the means, both ideological and aesthetic, to say things that speak to everyone, and this is at this specific moment that my artistic practice takes place. I'm just using these tools to draw attention to this time of changes. As an artist, I would like to immortalize these changes so that no one is ignorant of what happened during this period. “I wanted to take a significant painting, a widely recognised painting that subconsciously or consciously conditions us to see white female figures as powerful and authoritative and flip the script, establish a counter-narrative.” “White figures are a staple in classic art featured in major museums. They are the “masters” of the masterpieces. Why should that continue?”
