Woman playing Djembé

Woman Playing Djembé is a mural commissioned by Andina, London. The artwork celebrates rhythm, feminity and cultural heritage, depicting a woman immersed in the act of drumming. Bold colours, patterned backgrounds, and organic forms echo the energy of music and the warmth of communal spaces, while the Djembe becomes a symbol of connection, storytelling and ancestral tradition.

Lantin America Blooms (Latinoamérica florece)

I painted this mural as a celebration of the Latin American community in London. Located on Elephant Road, the artwork reimagines the map of Latin America as a vibrant composition of flowers, symbolising cultural richness, resilience, and shared roots. The phrase "Latinoamérica florece - Abya Yala" honours indigenous identity and the idea of collective growth. Created as a symbol of unity and empowerment, the mural was completed with a live painting during Latin Elephant's Fundraising Party, reinforcing its role as a communal and celebratory artwork.
