UNTAPPED

The exhibition is about bringing African Female artists into the spotlight. We want to show stories from the African woman perspective and we want to show that there’s this presence of such art pieces in the web3 space. The reason why this exhibition is curated by two Nigerian women is because we want to take charge of telling our stories instead of waiting for others to do that for us. There are talented women artists from Africa telling their stories through art in the Nft space. They deserve to be celebrated and supported and this exhibition is doing that.

This exhibition is greatly influenced by our Nigerian heritage, we are passionate about bringing attention to Nigerian and African women in art. There are a lot of talented African women in the Nft space, however, we are marginalised and often left out of important opportunities. We have seen a lot of women forced to leave the Nft space due to lack of exposure and not being appreciated. Our aim is to help alleviate this possible loss of talents by curating an exhibition aimed at supporting and bringing awareness to these amazing up and coming female artists.
