I am a mixed media artist who uses original African fabrics and newsprint as a major element in my art, the African fabrics are used to show my identity as an African and also give an insight into my subject matter or narrative as it concerns issues regarding the African continent and the diaspora, the newsprint at the other hand, I use to seek texture and also make social commentary. Both the fabrics and newsprint put together create a feeling of dynamism to the viewer. 

However, my subject matter and narrative as a mixed-media artist center on historical, social, cultural issues that concern Africa in regard to cultural syncretism, identity issues, culture clash, and pride. My art sort of activism regarding the problem and issues faced by the continent of Africa which draws backs to pre-colonial and post-colonial history in reference to the setbacks it has caused for Africa today. 

The prices of my works differ based on the size of the artworks, the sizes also depend on the expanse of materials used in making each of them, as I incorporate more than one mediums into making an art piece; the African fabrics, newspapers, acrylics, and oils which remain the basic material for my art-making, this entails that the bigger the size the more amount of material is used, which influences the pricing of my work.
