Rele Arts Foundation
Lagos, Nigeria

Nneji’s artistic expression is inspired by her experience as a woman living with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). The artist intentionally uses bold colours and patterns to debunk a culture of silence, speaking audaciously about the trauma experienced as a result of her medical condition.
