[photographer unknown]
My name is Aissata I'm from the Islands of Sao Tome and Principe. I'm a painter currently living in New York.
Using vibrant colors, strong silhouettes and bright patterns, I depict figures proud of their bodies and comfortable in their own skin. My paintings celebrate friendship, love, passion and unity. Often described as “experiences,” my compositions have the feel of a dance performance, musical concert or fashion show. This sense of pageantry stems from my career as a fashion model and my love of different cultures. I envision my painted figures enacting their own celebrations and rituals through song, dance and their bright, beautiful clothes.
