Please find below a sample of paintings created by Adelaide Damoah, organised by series.

Abstract

Inspired by Mexican artist Frida Khalo, Adelaide Damoah started out creating powerful abstract emotion filled pieces which reflected the mood that she was in and what she was going through emotionally. Often, the pieces produced came from a place of physical and emotional pain. She says, "Sometimes I sit and draw or paint whatever comes to mind and that is when the most strange pieces are produced...". This is something that Adelaide Damoah does on a regular basis, so this gallery will be updated frequently.

Black Brits

The Black Brits exhibition took place in February 2006 in popular menswear designer Charlie Allen's boutique. Through a series of oil paintings of British icons, Adelaide Damoah sought to ask the British public to think about the nature of iconography by switching the skin colour of icons such as David Beckham and Kate Moss.

Faces

Adelaide Damoah has been fascinated by faces since her child hood - often being caught staring at the faces of strangers whenever possible. In 2004, a friend asked her to paint his portrait, he loved the result, and from that point on Adelaide Damoah started studying the faces of strangers, friends and herself through her work. Faces is an ongoing project and new faces will be added to this gallery on a regular basis.
