This painting is an ode to female strength, independence, and self-determination. It depicts a woman proudly standing with a boat on her head — a symbol of her ability to navigate her own life’s course. She is not merely carrying a burden, but steering her own vessel, embodying resilience and resolve.

Bathed in warm shades of yellow and orange, the figure radiates an “eternal sunlight” — a metaphor for inner light and strength. The green ropes wrapped around her body represent societal constraints and obstacles. Yet, they fail to break her spirit: despite attempts to hold her back, the woman rises, demonstrating her power to overcome any barrier.

This work highlights the greatness of women who, in spite of challenges, carve out their own paths and illuminate the world with their unwavering determination and inner force.

Amai is a testament to the unbreakable strength and resilience of African women. Despite centuries of colonization, African women have preserved their courage and continue to shape a better reality.

This vibrant portrait celebrates the beauty and power of women. A strong, expressive face adorned with traditional dotted patterns radiates confidence and determination. The red background symbolizes the burning spirit of African women, while the sunflowers represent growth, renewal, and unwavering optimism.

Amai embodies the legacy of ancestors who endured the unimaginable yet safeguarded their cultural heritage. She represents millions of African women who continue to rise above adversity, nurture families, and uphold cultural traditions. Through the image of Amai, the artist pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of womanhood.

This work explores the layered nature of masculinity, using color as a tool to express a wide spectrum of emotions. Each hue is carefully chosen to symbolize vulnerability, strength, love, and resilience — qualities often suppressed in men under the weight of traditional gender expectations.

The central figure, rendered in black, serves as the anchor of the composition, representing a stable and multifaceted male identity. The image evokes the fragility that lies beneath external bravado. The social roles traditionally assigned to men often mask deep internal conflicts.

The composition invites the viewer to reconsider masculinity — not as something rigid and confined, but as fluid, expressive, and alive. Through bold patterns, symbolic imagery, and layered forms, the artist seeks to spark a conversation about the need to dismantle stereotypes and encourage emotional freedom.

In this work, Natasha Mwila reflects on the nature of patriarchy by contrasting two worlds. In the foreground stand the women — vibrant, dynamic, and full of energy. They embody strength, resilience, and the invisible yet constant weight of responsibility. Their forward movement is not only a physical act but a metaphor for survival, inner power, and the continuity of cultural heritage.

In stark contrast are the static male silhouettes in business suits. Faceless and detached, they symbolize systems of power and control that shape the environment women must navigate. Their stillness underscores a distance — not a lack of influence, but a haunting presence that defines the very landscape the women move through.
Through this piece, Natasha not only questions patriarchal structures but also honors the endurance of women — those who continue to live, create, and move forward, despite everything they carry.

This work is a profound reflection on the connection between the body, culture, and collective memory. The central figure seems to have absorbed the shadow of the past — she is both fragile and resilient, inward-looking yet calling out for attention. Her arms wrapped around herself suggest an act of self-care and deep inner grounding.

Behind her, red petals unfold like wings or a flower — a symbol of homeland or spiritual heritage. The burst of orange rays evokes sacred halos and ritual patterns, emphasizing the sanctity of the moment of self-acceptance within a cultural context.

The golden fiber skirt recalls traditional dance costumes, highlighting that moving forward is impossible without dancing with the past. The dark background gives the piece a mystical, almost meditative rhythm.

This work speaks to the importance of not only remembering one’s roots but embracing them with love and dignity. The embrace here is not just a gesture of acceptance, but a step toward healing, self-awareness, and growth

This visual statement explores the search for identity in a world overwhelmed by information, cultural codes, and digital noise.

In the foreground, a young girl is shown leaning on her hand, her expression weary yet contemplative. She repeatedly writes the phrase "What is my identity," as if attempting to find clarity through repetition. This detail reflects an inner struggle and the uncertainty that accompanies the search for one’s true self.

Thick black cables or tendrils grow from the girl's head, reminiscent of Medusa’s hair — but instead of snakes, their ends bear symbols of modern culture and information: a television, a smartphone, a book, documents, and more. These elements represent the influence of media, technology, and societal expectations on identity formation.

The background is filled with abstract images and fragments of text, including scenes from everyday life, hinting at the social context in which truth and identity are continuously shaped.

The artwork "Wanderers of the Earth" envelops the viewer in a sense of dreaminess and ephemeral beauty. It depicts three dark figures walking through a glowing, pixelated background that appears to dissolve like digital fragments. Each figure is adorned with white, translucent wings, lending them an angelic quality.

The figures are devoid of individual features, making them universal — they could be anyone: a child, a wanderer, a soul. The wings, rendered in soft shades of white and blue, appear light and delicate, symbolizing not only freedom and transcendence but also vulnerability.

The painting speaks to movement and transition. Its subjects represent eternal wanderers, seeking their path both on Earth and beyond. The textured “glitch effect” of the background evokes a digital environment, suggesting a convergence of physical and virtual worlds.

This artwork explores how society shapes and controls the roles of women. From a young age, girls are guided onto a path that tells them how to behave, what to do, and who to become. The winding road in the image represents this journey-one filled with expectations, traditions, and responsibilities that are often chosen for women rather than by them.

The smaller women in the arched frames show different stages of life, each one shaped by what society expects from them.
Through this piece, I question: Do women truly have the freedom to choose their own paths, or are they simply following a road that was already built for them?

The digital artwork conveys themes of social stratification and the impact of patriarchy on women. Through this composition, the art focuses on the layers of society and how they impact women differently, drawing attention to the challenges posed by gender-based inequality .
social stratification refers to the division of society into hierarchical layers, often based on factors like class, race, and gender, leading to unequal access to resources, power, and status. Here are some key areas where women particularly suffer from the effects of social stratification: economic inequality; education; political representation; healthcare and social norms and roles.

This piece explores the way masculinity serves as both the foundation and perpetuator of patriarchal systems. The intricate web of roots symbolizes how deeply ingrained these structures are, passed down through generations, shaping societal roles, expectations, and power dynamics. The central figure, illuminated and authoritative, embodies the influence men hold-both as creators of these systems and as key players in dismantling them.

Rather than presenting masculinity as inherently harmful, the piece highlights its duality: it is both the origin of structural oppression and the potential catalyst for change. The figures entangled in the roots represent the far-reaching effects of patriarchy, impacting not just women but entire communities. By visualizing this cycle, the artwork invites reflection on the ways masculinity can either reinforce or challenge the systems it has historically upheld.

The Premature Burden is a poignant visual examination of the social pressures placed on boys to prematurely assume male roles. Through the interplay of veiled figures and a cacophony of color, this artwork explores the complex emotional journey through which the boys confront traditional expectations of being a provider, protector, and stoic pillar of strength.

The artwork piece asks viewers to reflect on the implicit emotional toll of such expectations and consider the importance of allowing boys to express their identities more authentically and personally.

This artwork is a indictment of performative leadership-where power is wielded through speech, but action remains absent. The figures, dressed in wealth and authority, stand around a table laden with symbols of privilege-liquor, money, luxury, and property. Their mouths are wide open, yet they lack eyes, a haunting representation of a leadership that speaks but does not see.

Without eyes, they are blind to the struggles of the people beneath them, blind to the hunger, suffering, and inequality that their decisions-or lack thereof-perpetuate. They make grand promises, deliver eloquent speeches, and declare their commitment to the nation's progress, yet their sightless faces reveal the truth: they do not witness the consequences of their inaction.

Below them, children sit on the ground, eating scraps, a stark contrast to the excess above. This imbalance mirrors the reality of many societies where politicians and elites talk endlessly about growth, development, and prosperity while their people remain trapped in poverty. Words are plentiful, but justice, opportunity, and real change are scarce.

The absence of eyes is not just a metaphor for ignorance but for deliberate disregard. They do not see because they choose not to. They do not acknowledge the suffering because to do so would mean taking responsibility. In their world, power is sustained by words, not by vision.

This piece forces us to ask: what is leadership without sight? What is governance without accountability?
And at what point do the people beneath the table stop waiting for crumbs and instead demand a seat at it?

"How far," represents a shared experience of girlhood.
Using a digital brush that mimics traditional textures, artist added depth with an impasto effect. Claire also incorporated white strokes to depict braiding within the image.
This piece was inspired by witnessing a powerful moment of a mother caring for her daughter's hair, symbolizing the cultural significance of braids.

Some dreams come true and some dreams never see the light of day.
"I gaze at this girl who is still as a statue, lost in thought, perhaps about tomorrow or days gone by. As our eyes meet, in a split second I sense fascination in her eyes, a likeness of a dreamer in her own world, while she sits on a nearby wall of Chitambi school, where children over the years have drawn."

The image displays a captivating painting featuring a strong black hand. Below the hand is, multiple tiny handprints of the young masses in various colors— such as red, yellow, blue, and black- is visible.
The artwork suggests themes of connectivity, resilience and diversity.
In summary, this painting celebrates the power of unity, diversity, and collective strength—a reminder that together, we can overcome challenges and create a better world.
