About The Artwork

Inspired by the Tuaregs in North Africa Tuaregs are a large Berber ethnic confederation, who are traditionally a matrilineal society. The Tuareg women own the homes and the animals and families trace lineage through women. The Tuaregs are an Islamic tribe where women embrace sexual freedoms, dictate who gets what in divorce and don't wear the veil because men 'want to see their beautiful faces'. Instead, men wear veils. Interestingly, prenups and divorce are everyday - with parents throwing their recently separated daughters 'divorce parties'! However, similar to the Navajos the Tuaregs are slowly changing, with younger men more influenced by the surrounding patriarchy.

I am a London based artist working primarily with acrylics. I enjoy the versatility of the medium as I have the flexibility of choosing between a water colour approach, oil like approach or trying new ways. My paintings mostly start off as ideas and concepts, which I compose in my head. Once I’m happy with the subjects, the colours and the placement, I then translate this to my chosen medium. I use a lot of colour symbolism in my paintings and even match backgrounds with the subjects I paint.
