By artist Joke Valerie Amusan

Joke Valerie Amusan 
Joke Valerie Amusan is a 21-year-old German-born Nigerian artist who lives in London. She is the author of the blog She Stands Firm, which celebrates women of colour and champion the voices of women who aren’t heard. Her art is concerned with challenging the often negative portrayal black women in the media. Employing materials such as hessian and wool, she explores the power of words and objects. Her sculptural pieces are strategically placed to ask questions and start conversations. Her work demands not only to be seen and heard, but felt. Amusan has exhibited in London and Reading.
