Description
This painting is inspired by the peace a child experiences in the care of a loving mother. Surrounded by generations of family and watched over by unseen guardians, the child rests in safety and comfort. The work celebrates the protection, guidance, and sense of belonging that nurture a child from the very beginning of life.
Cowries are hand-stitched to depict, according to the African tradition, the sacredness of life and the family bond.
Presentation
Martha Ada Okechukwu is a Nigerian visual artist whose practice explores Black identity, lineage, family, relationships, and human connection through contemporary figurative painting. Working primarily in mixed media, she combines acrylic with tactile elements such as beads and cowries to create richly textured surfaces that bridge painting and object.
Her work centers on the spiritual, cultural, and emotional presence of her subjects, often depicting figures with deep black skin tones illuminated by vibrant accents of color, and engaging themes of womanhood, childhood, and generational continuity. Drawing from Igbo heritage and broader African traditions, her compositions reflect themes of identity, resilience, ancestry, and sacred embodiment.
Martha's practice seeks to honor the visibility and inner life of African figures, positioning them as carriers of memory, relationship, and cultural continuity.
