So, you're the nosy type, huh? Good. A little curiosity is healthy. I'll give you some info, but not too much. A little mystery is also healthy.
I'm Akua, an artist and professional over thinker from London.
I draw inspiration from a time period that predates my own existence, capturing a vision of black representation in a time when it was mostly concealed from view. I have a slightly unhealthy fascination with aesthetics from decades I did not personally experience.
The result is a steadily growing collection of glamorous, beautiful women, very aware of how good they look. They inhabit a slightly nostalgic world that never quite existed, but probably should have, where dramatic eyeliner is taken very seriously.
When I'm not drawing, I can usually be found thinking about drawing, dancing in my living room, or staring dramatically at a blank page as if the art might make itself.
