Original mixed media on canvas painting by Nigerian artist Daminu Wasiu — one-of-one African abstract wall art for the living room, bedroom, or office. This piece ships ready to hang, sourced directly from the artist's studio.

“Wanda Na Gani” by Daminu Wasiu is a collection of abstract portrait paintings that explores identity through color, expression, and distortion. Built around vivid tones and emotionally charged compositions, the series captures figures that feel deeply present while still remaining open to interpretation.

About This Collection

Created in 2026, the “Wanda Na Gani” series reflects Daminu Wasiu’s instinctive approach to portraiture and abstraction. Each piece balances bold color relationships with loose expressive brushwork, creating portraits that feel both intimate and unpredictable. Some figures appear calm, others uneasy, but every artwork carries a strong sense of personality and emotional presence.

Rather than aiming for realism, the collection focuses on feeling, memory, and perception. The result is a body of work that invites viewers to connect emotionally before trying to fully understand what they are seeing.
