    my work generates so much inspiration from my parents old photographs. The images document a time of defining a post colonial African identity. The silhouettes, tones, and composition play a big part in constructing the images we produce today. I tend to see images already formed in my head and its usually going through a process of expressing them through a chosen medium. Somewhere between African mysticism and my parents photographs are usually my immediate aestechtic refrences.
