Artist examines state of the nation

country on the cusp of greatness

AS the nation struggles with a number of issues affecting its social,  economic and political values,  many have continued to identify what has gone wrong,  how to get back on track as well as discover new opportunities for everyone.

One recent attempt was done from the creative lenses.Here, Tiffany-Annabelle takes Nigerians and art enthusiasts through what has been described as an unfiltered reality of Nigeria in deconstruction of the Coat of Arms.

Tagged Behind the Coat this is her second Nigerian solo exhibition. Creatively,  Tiffany-Annabelle takes apart the Nigerian Coat of Arms to reveal her interpretation of the current state of Nigeria. Through the deconstruction of this emblem of national prosperity, Tiffany-Annabelle uncovers its inconsistency with Nigeria’s current condition.

This exhibition entitled “Behind the Coat” began on October 29th at Miliki, Victoria Island. Tiffany-Annabelle explores this idea,through  screen-printing with acrylics on canvas, while maintaining her signature style in the use of triangles. Although she enters new territory in terms of her medium, she vastly explores the dichotomy between national excellence and a struggling nation by using the Coat of Arms as a metaphor.
