Rose (2022) Εκτυπώσεις & Χαρακτικά από Achu

Achu was born in Cameroon, West Africa. She and her family immigrated to London, where she lived for many years. Today, she has studios in Cameroon, the UK, and the USA. She picked up her first paint brush at a tender age of 9, experimenting with several mediums including oils, acrylics, watercolour, mix media, etc. Today, her chosen preferred mediums are acrylics and oils. Achu’s art comes from everyday, unsurprising yet unexpectedly vivid moments, times, places and objects. She seeks to capture the spirit of her subjects and make them come alive through form, colour, texture and tone. She draws insight from her travels but in general, her inspiration is very broad; from natural moments captured in Africa to still objects, from the human form to the human in action. The eternal optimist, Achu sees beauty in almost anything and everything. She finds beauty where there is normalcy, and she sees colour through shades of grey. She therefore draws from this distinctively beautiful World of hers and aims to evoke an emotion which translates into images of delight or surprise, with the sole objective of capturing the soul of the subject. There is also a contrasting and contradictory side to Achu’s ‘Beautiful’ World. Paintings of animal hearts have only led to her being called morbid, dark, and even confused?! And her love for painting raw meat and the naked human flesh is one to be interrogated.
