Head of State Acrylic on canvas 30 x 30 inches 2021 Head of State is a portrait of the iconic Fela Kuti. As a revolutionary musician and eminent pioneer of the Afrobeat genre, Fela forthrightly used his creative talent to combat the detrimental affects of colonialism and champion his traditional Yoruba culture. Regardless of the many forms of personal attacks from the Nigerian government towards him and his loved ones, he persevered and continued to liberate people through the profound messages in his music. “The human spirit is stronger than any government or institution." - Fela Kuti

Variety Brown is a London based artist whose current focus is portraiture. Her subjects are of inspirational and admirable Black Icons, their contributions ranging from Activism, Music, Sport, and Entertainment Industries. These pieces are painted on canvas using black and white acrylic paint with inspiration having been taken from black and white photography as well as to add a classic feel. Pride is taken in the contrast displayed using conflicting colours, highlighting shadows and light. Portraying an accurate and specific expression is also pursued. The end result is intended to display a strong and bold image that draws you in and furthermore sheds insight into the background of the icon.
