Intensity through purpose

    On this day, September 24, 2024, which falls on a Tuesday, “the color dark red encapsulates the themes of intensity, passion, and determination. This rich shade resonates with the drive and enthusiasm that characterize individuals who are committed to their objectives. It serves as an emblem of strength and resilience, inspiring a sense of urgency and purpose in the journey toward achieving one's goals.” My mission is to elevate the visibility of individuals and organizations, engage with their target audience, and help them achieve their business goals through strategic consulting services.

Golden Shadow

Golden Shadow. Digital art created on canvas. August 15, 2024. Afrika Abney Golden Shadow is a captivating abstract digital artwork that masterfully explores the interplay between vibrant yellow hues and profound black tones. This striking contrast serves as a powerful metaphor for the duality of existence, illustrating how light and darkness can coexist harmoniously within a single composition. The addition of various shades of brown further enriches the visual narrative, creating a sense of depth and complexity that invites viewers to reflect on the intricate balance of opposing forces in life. This dynamic relationship between light and shadow not only captivates the viewer but also encourages a deeper contemplation of the themes of hope and despair, joy and sorrow. The subtle incorporation of brown tones adds warmth to the piece, grounding the vibrant colors and enhancing the overall emotional resonance of the artwork.

Unity in Motion

    “Unity in Motion emphasizes the importance of inclusivity and collaboration within the arts community, promoting a sense of togetherness. During my time at various art institutions, I encountered instances of racism and discrimination. These experiences were disheartening and highlighted the challenges faced within the visual art and dance community. Additionally, I faced issues with timely payment from several organizations, which further complicated my professional engagements. Despite my commitment to providing high-quality services, there were instances where payments were delayed or not received at all and raised concerns about the professionalism of the organizations involved. It is important to note that throughout my interactions with these companies, I did not render any services since I was last hired. The combination of discriminatory experiences, financial inconsistencies, and a lack of engagement from certain organizations highlights the importance for improve...

Past endeavors

    Six years prior, the year was 2018. During that time, I did not engage in the creation of abstract digital art. Reflecting on that period, it is clear that my artistic endeavors were directed elsewhere, and I did not explore this particular medium. My attention is not directed towards the past, despite my full awareness of it. The experiences and choices I made in 2018 are part of my professional history, yet they do not define my current focus or artistic pursuits. Instead, I am looking forward, concentrating on the present and future possibilities. While I acknowledge the absence of abstract digital art in my portfolio from 2018. At this current moment, I am fully focused on my digital art, branding and providing my services for my client.
