Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This vibrant contemporary artwork showcases a dynamic interplay of colors, shapes, and textures. The bold, abstract composition features a dominant red form that appears to be a distorted architectural element, contrasted against a backdrop of muted tones and gestural brushstrokes. The overall style suggests a blend of expressionism and cubism, with the artist employing a unique technique that combines painting, collage, and unconventional materials. The piece invites the viewer to ponder the artist's intended exploration of themes related to urban landscapes and the relationship between structure and chaos. ...

Virginia Chihota
B.1983, Zimbabwean

Virginia Chihota’s work explores black female subjectivity and the notion of ‘belonging’ as a form of cosmopolitanism. Across printmaking, drawing and painting, she suggests novel ways to think about dislocated subjects, domesticity and shifting identities. Born in Zimbabwe, Chihota has lived in Libya, Tunisia, Austria and Montenegro. Her itinerant experiences shape her work and her sense of self. She describes her practice as a ‘reflection on self-discovery in constantly changing circumstances’. ...

Founded in London in 2011 by Maria Varnava, Tiwani Contemporary exhibits and represents international contemporary artists. Specifically, the gallery champions artists from Africa and its diaspora. To celebrate its 10-year anniversary, in February 2022 Tiwani Contemporary launched a purpose-built 2,000sq ft space on Victoria Island, Lagos. For Maria Varnava, who grew up in Nigeria, this is considered a homecoming. Besides its regular programme of exhibitions, Tiwani Contemporary Lagos collaborates with G.A.S –Guest Artists Space–, Yinka Shonibare’s Foundation, to offer residencies for international artists from the programme who are interested in expanding their creative practice and exchanging with local artists.
