MINT Gallery Magazine Apr. 2018 | Page 9

MINT Gallery Magazine caught up with a friend from our flagship issue. KWEYVE. Since we last saw her she has continued to practice her craft, find her voice and live up to her name: The Woman Amongst Women. Hafsat showcased her work at a solo exhibition at Maison the Cafe in Abuja on the 9th and 10th of March. The show was a journey through her art. Exploring her creative process and mapping out her journey from her first painting to her most recent. Hafsie has literally created a world of women, filled with strength, inspiration, healing and sisterhood. The “Tribe” is one that anyone would want to to be apart of, a place where women, can just be women. Away from the pressures and scrutiny of the world. A place where creativity thrives and being an artist doesn’t mean your first obstacle is proving yourself to the people closest to you. (Nigerian creatives, you know what I’m talking about). 9
