Adelaide Damoah

Adelaide is a self-taught artist who takes her inspiration from the inner recesses of her being. An endometriosis-sufferer herself, Adelaide was passionate about painting from an early age, but threw herself into art when her disease interrupted her career in the pharmaceutical industry.

The crippling pain of endometriosis became the basis of a series of mind-blowing heartfelt abstract paintings, depicting her discomfort in kaleidoscope form.

This has become the catalyst for her artistic expression and has paved the way for a new and exciting career in the art world.

 

As an artist, Adelaide is inspired and influenced by the life and art of Frida Kahlo, whose physical and emotional pain was also evident in her work. Kahlo's pieces, like Adelaide's, exude vibrancy while telling a thought provoking story, with Adelaide's pieces often being based upon visions from her subconscious.

Adelaide is best known for her 2006 exhibition "Black Brits" whereby she attempted to evoke a racial debate with striking pieces of British Icons, leading to appearances on BBC London News and Channel 5 News.

Adelaide had three solo shows in 2008, all to great acclaim, and three group shows in 2009 so far,and a solo exhibition on 1 October in SOHO, London, United Kingdom. So far, she has two solo exhibitions booked for 2010 in Denmark and Spain, and a solo show in 2011 in Rome.

Don't hesitate for this unique opportunity to bid for art by an up and coming artist whose profile is increasing monthly - and contribute to endometriosis research at the same time!
