Dr. Ngozi Rosemary Akande

A contemplative practice of color, memory, and form.

Contemporary Nigerian artist exploring emotion and cultural heritage through harmonious blues, oranges, and reds—with fabric textures that connect to ancestral roots.

Art as Healing, Culture as Foundation

"My artistic journey is driven by impulse and emotion. Paint becomes my language—a therapeutic outlet that helps me process feelings and reaffirm my worth. Through harmonious color and fabric textures, I bridge emotional catharsis with cultural preservation."
