Abstract art is art that does not attempt to represent an accurate depiction of a visual reality but instead use shapes, colours, forms and gestural marks to achieve its effect.
Knowing well that Art can be describe as a means of self expression, i feel i should create a different art with the African motif also using Abstract.

Few days ago, i posted some of my photography research images and brief history of EKOMBI DANCE
. ekombi, is a unique Nigerian ethnic dance of peace. Is also an incredible footwork dance of happiness. In some tradition in Nigeria, we welcome the King with a special praise and dance.
MOTIF
Motif is a unit part of a design. A motif is the most basic unit from which a design is formed. It is generally developed from different combination of geometrical shapes. Motifs are repeated in different ways to create a pattern whereas patterns are repeated to create designs. Most of the traditional motifs are often inspired from nature.
I got most of my moves from plants and leafs.
A major form of expression, African patterns are popular as a means of personal adornment and a medium of communication. These exquisite textiles give wearers and admirers insight into social, religious, and political African contexts in an abstract and approachable way.
Thank you.
