Submission Painting

People, Memory, and Noise

I'm Krad, a Nigerian artist working across acrylic, oil pastel and digital media. My work is a running record of people, memory and the noise of Lagos as I see it. Through distorted figures, expressive faces, layered colour and fragmented forms, I explore how people and places stay with us, change in memory, and shape the way we see the world. Now based in Helsinki, I continue to build this visual language through painting, drawing and experimentation.
