Timothy Orikri Fine Art, African Art, Abstract Art

I aspire to use my artwork as a means to contribute towards societal change. My art and hand-painted ceramics resonate the similar themes of hope, harmony and the gift of nature; and, to that end, I work to formulate projects that will profoundly alter and enhance society. The most obvious attribute of my work is the use of color as a means of expression. I enhance the color content of each canvas with touches of light and shadows by using texture and three-dimensional forms to add emphasis to the desired effect. I rely on colors as a major element in projecting the emotional content in my works. One of the major objectives in creating my paintings in my desire to fulfill an emotional response, rather than focusing on the subject matter.
