​STATE OF MIND


What I'm about

'Blueblack Scream' by Abena Addo©

I think on multi-layers and like to express myself in a variety of ways. I think in fits and spurts, and sometimes agonise for hours, over the smallest details. But mostly, I think fast, more like a feeling, a vibe, that is how I have experienced Art from a child, and my love of Art has been an enduring feature of my life.

Working mainly in paint, but also using collage, I often times get ideas from the material itself. It could be the shape of the paper, or likely, a found object which seems to 'scream' to me to create a piece of work with a specific theme or outcome.

Thanks ever so much to Phil P for taking the photographs at The Oxo Tower Bargehouse, and to Dorothy Nkemdirim of Cylinder Gallery, for organising the shoot.


​ I can work to order, but I am happier doing something with a higher degree of creative freedom. I do like to respond to themes that interest me though, as I like to interpret, and find it an interesting prospect to discover the different responses, and also to be involved in group processes. I am concerned with responding to the world in which we live in a number of ways.

I respond within, and without of the social confines of the body in which I came into this world, and how the world views that body, and of my insistence of being myself, and true to myself.

I am moved to express myself on an emotional sphere, and to communicate through Art, something of the human experience, as I see it.

As a person, I am pretty bubbly and sociable, and like to mix with all kinds of people from all walks of life.
