I am pleased to share another outcome of the Africa Prime Initiative’s (API) commitment to uplifting #African talent. Currently on display at #LomanArt in Dakar, the ‘Soppiku: Métamorphose – The Evolution of Artistic Identity’ exhibition showcases the work of five emerging #Senegalese artists: Amy Celestina Ndione, Fatou Mandoye Mbengue, Laye Thione, Mouhamad Jawad, and Xaadim Bamba Mbow. Each artist has received a grant of US$2,000 from #API to support their artistic development and elevate their global recognition. The exhibition opening on 12th October was a success, featuring a guided exhibition tour led by curator Linjie Zhou. Attendees had the chance to engage with the artists, learning about the transformative themes present in their works and their individual contributions to the exhibition. ‘Soppiku: Métamorphose’ not only celebrates artistic growth but also underscores the importance of nurturing local talent in Senegal. A heartfelt thank you to the artists and Loman Art for
