Title: unraveling identity
Medium; mixed media
Year; 2025
Dimension: 3 × 4 feet
Unraveling Identity" is a visual representation of the complex and multifaceted nature of identity. The painting depicts a woman with Afro hair and a zip on her face, which, when unzipped, reveals a map of Africa. This powerful svmbolism speaks to the was in which our identities are often tied to our cultural heritage, and how this heritage can be both a source of pride and a target for oppression.
Through this piece, I aim to explore the tensions between cultural identity, personal identity, and the societal expectations that shape our understanding of self. By
"unraveling" the zip, I invite the viewer to contemplate the ways in which our identities are constructed, performed, and perceived. Ultimately, "Unraveling Identity" is a celebration of the beauty and complexity of African identity, and a testament to the power of art to challenge and subvert dominant narratives.

My order arrived in great condition and in a timely fashion. It was more beautiful in person than it was online. I look forward to purchasing additional pieces from this artist. My only suggestion for improvement would be that you sign your art pieces. You are already a great artist. As your notoriety increases, your signature will distinguish your work from imitators who will certainly come. It also authenticates and preserves the value of your pieces for collectors of your work.
At ANKA, we do not believe in the myth of predefined sizes. Each body is different and deserves an outfit just as unique. Therefore, to use this guide, we recommend using your measurements in inches (as explained below) rather than the "4 to 22" sizes.
From there you can select the corresponding international size for your order, and each seller will then be able to make sure to send the PERFECT fit for YOU!
