The Confrontation (Abeni, Yeye and Aboya's Peacefully Chaotic Debate)

Description

This acrylic-on-canvas painting depicts three young women captured in a complicated gridlock. We are left to figure out whether their confrontation is a fight or a reckoning of divergent ideologies and strengths. Either way, this piece presents the idea of African women engaging one another meaningfully.
