Mamijo Akimana is a visual artist who translates the world around her into art inspired by surrealist techniques. She aims to elicit an emotional reaction from viewers and connect people with parts of themselves through visual pieces. With various techniques and styles, her work extends her personality with a recurring theme of a life full of colour. The unspoken language of Art has so much more to offer than we have experienced.
Elephant Evolution - The elephant evolution piece is broken down into 4 parts showcasing from different timelines transitioning from dawn to dusk.. fossils, mammoths, a baby elephant painted for the holi festival, and an abstract one. As elephants are endangered species, if not protected they will go extinct but if we're able to save them, who knows what they will look like.
The Elephant Evolution is a reflection of what will remain based on how concerned we are with the survival of this species.
From history to our future, not much is certain, we have witness so much come and go. Do we cherish our surroundings or is it be too much to ask for to co- exist with nature and all its beauty?
You are all set!
