Description

Discover the captivating world of modern African art with this abstract mixed media acrylic painting on canvas. Framed in 12mm oak veneer float frames

This vibrant abstract painting by Nigerian artist Kehinde Badmus is a compelling exploration of color, texture, and form, invoking the emotive power of modern expressionism. The composition is dominated by bold, dynamic brushstrokes in deep blacks, fiery oranges, and luminous yellows, creating a sense of intense energy and movement. The black areas appear to anchor the painting, while the yellow and orange hues seem to radiate outward, adding warmth and vitality.

Scattered throughout the painting are fine, erratic lines and faint scribbles, adding an element of chaos and spontaneity. These lines intersect and overlay the broad swaths of color, suggesting a narrative or emotional journey. In particular, phrases like "I am" and other indistinct words emerge from the chaotic background, hinting at themes of identity and self-expression.

Texture plays a crucial role in this piece, with thick, impasto applications of paint creating a tactile, almost sculptural surface. The interplay between the rough, textured areas and smoother, more fluid regions adds depth and complexity to the visual experience.

The use of light and dark, along with the juxtaposition of structured and unstructured elements, invites viewers to explore their own interpretations and emotional responses. This painting exemplifies the power of abstract art to evoke deep, personal reflections, making it a striking and thought-provoking addition to any collection.

"I absolutely LOVE Bibianna candles. They are delicious! Bergamot & Musk is my go-to scent, but the Orange & Cinnamon is calling me for Christmas time! The scents fill the room in the most pleasing way, even unlit they smell gorgeous. When lit, they burn slowly and create a beautifully warm and sumptuous ambience.The scented sticks and oils make gorgeous gifts, alongside the candles in their sleek white glass jars. Each scent comes with its' very own pen and ink illustration, which are cute and contemporary. Love this brand (and the owner) Highly recommend xx"

"Gorgeous scented candles to use in all seasons, I love Coconut and Lime for summer. Not to mention the beautiful ceramic containers can be kept to use as planters, pen holders and so on."
