              Caroline Chinakwe, a Nigerian-born mixed-media artist from North West London, crafts a captivating narrative of culture, identity, and social justice. With over 25 years in fashion, including work at Nicole Farhi and Polo Avenue, Lagos, she shifted to art in 2019, responding to the absence of diverse and positive black culture and style representations in fashion.
Caroline's evocative collages blend PopArt, Afrofuturism, and fine art, challenging norms and embracing black beauty. Notably, her "Colourism" series, born from the aftermath of the BLM protest, explores racial biases within the beauty industry and the preference for lighter skin tone within the Black and Brown communities.
