"Black Damsel" is a stunning piece of art created by Nigerian-American artist, Joshua Salami. This artwork, which was created in 2022, is a powerful representation of Black womanhood and the strength and resilience that Black women possess.
The artwork features a Black woman in profile, with her eyes expressive and her head held high. She is wearing a hat. Her skin is a deep, rich shade of brown that highlights her beauty and grace.
One of the most striking aspects of "Black Damsel" is the way in which the artist has captured the essence of the Black woman's spirit. The woman in the painting exudes a sense of strength and determination, even in the face of adversity. Her expressive eyes suggest that she is inviting and also deep in thought, perhaps contemplating the challenges that she has overcome in her life and the obstacles that she may still face in the future.
The choice of colors used in the artwork is also significant. The light, rich green used in the background gives the painting a sense of depth and grounding, while the vibrant yellow and white in the woman's dress serve to highlight her beauty and strength.
In many ways, "Black Damsel" is a celebration of Black womanhood. It acknowledges the struggles that Black women have faced throughout history, while also celebrating their resilience and strength. The artwork serves as a reminder of the beauty and power that Black women possess and the importance of acknowledging and celebrating their contributions to society.
Joshua Salami is a talented artist who has created a stunning piece of art in "Black Damsel". Through his use of color, composition, and subject matter, he has created a work of art that is not only beautiful to look at but also has a deep and profound message.

Joshua Salami is an artist whose passion for creativity in painting has no limit and he is a Nigerian-based contemporary artist. He is a product of The Polytechnic Of Ibadan, where he studied Art Design and Printing Technology and holds a diploma in fine art, and has participated in art workshops and art exhibitions. His work is deeply inspired and shaped by his experiences and the people around him, together with people's lifestyles in the world at large. His work also depicts experiences that inform his view of the world and humanity's self-discovery with life and its environment.
He also seeks to convey the mood of human life and expression with images that portray human experience through the blackness. His pictorial language developed within his work deals with human identity as it portrays themes woven around memories, lifestyle, and thoughts from everyday experiences. Joshua hopes that his works establish trust with the viewer, allowing a sincere conversation to commence and inspiring them to discover something about themselves while experiencing a new perspective. He also uses the richness his materials provide to give his work a strong physical presence that enhances the uniqueness of his style and creates a more appealing look, combined with the aesthetic value and beauty of the paint on canvas in contemporary art.
