Where Art meets Gele/Ichafu

I discovered Nigerian artist, Clement Mmaduako Nwafor through @turbanistaparis. I immediately proceeded to visit his Instagram home @clemspeter_art and I was excited to see his art works.

Clement works with oil paints on canvas. Among his popular works are paintings of African women wearing the traditional Gele/Ichafu. He sometimes incorporates pieces of fabric into his paintings turning the paintings into a masterful mixture of oil and collage.
We are all for his paintings of women in Gele because it is as if the women are wearing wispy magical crowns on their heads😎.

It is said that you should love what you do and I do that here in Belijose's Fashion Hauz. I love female clothing, style and fashion; I love how designers transform a fabric to fit the unique silhouette of a woman's body; I like how stylists and fashion lovers are able to interpret a designer's work in a way that they themselves make it their own; how a piece of jewelry makes all the difference and how less can be more; I like the excitement of the red carpets; I love fashion week and I hope to go for one someday; most importantly I love sharing with the Hauz what I think and feel about a particular style from any part of the world; I like sharing my music, my food experiments, music and videos, and I love that you get to read and like or comment. This is my little corner of the world where everything is possible. View all posts by Belinda Joseph
