About the Artwork
In Ayanfe, the artist delves into the interplay between subjective truth and universally captivating beauty, embodied by a girl who personifies the richness of African culture. Her gaze reflects a deep connection to tradition, inviting viewers to explore how beauty is shaped by individual perspectives and cultural heritage. The striking crown atop her head symbolizes grace and authority, connecting her to a legacy of strength and nobility. The bold RICH inscription speaks to both cultural wealth and the richness of experience, while the enigmatic 37 adds an air of mystery, perhaps alluding to personal or historical significance. The strike-through of the number 10 challenges the notion of objective truths, suggesting that what we accept as fact is often fluid and open to interpretation. Together with the phrase “Truth is never objective, beauty can be”, the artwork asks us to question established norms and embrace the diverse, ever-evolving nature of both truth and beauty.
