Tiffany-Annabelle Returns With ‘Women in Bloom” In Abuja From May 9-16
Acclaimed Delta state- born artist Tiffany-Annabelle returns with a transformative solo exhibition, ‘Women in Bloom’. This marks her first showing in Abuja, and a triumphant homecoming after her successful exhibition in Ghana last year where her work captured the attention of Ghana’s First Lady.
‘Women in Bloom’ is a powerful message about celebration and the embracing of a woman’s evolution, highlighting her inherent strength.
The ten-piece exhibit is a development from Tiffany-Annabelle’s sold out debut ‘MissAligned’, tracing a journey of growth and self-discovery with the current female subjects having blossomed.
They embody enjoyment, confidence and fulfillment, having found their paths to success. For the first time, the artist introduces a male figure, interacting with the women in her pieces.
The male form artfully rendered melting into a female. This symbolizes the profound impact a woman living her truth can have on the opposite sex.
Furthermore the women in Tiffany-Annabelle’s work are surrounded entirely by African flowers: a powerful exploration of their rootedness in their power and identity. Her signature use of triangles is still a constant in her work and if you look closely appears hidden in different areas.
‘Women in Bloom’ showcases
Tiffany-Annabelle’s artistic growth and the evolution of her distinctive style; her dedication to experimentation is evident in her meticulous six month exploration of techniques and materials, resulting in the captivating interplay of charcoal, oil pastel on brown paper.

The artist will be sending invitations to her collectors this week, for more information on the exhibition please view her instagram @thetiffanyannabelle
Artist Statement
“My journey as a woman deeply informs my art. ‘Women in Bloom’ builds upon the themes of my first exhibition, ‘Miss Aligned’, showing how my female subjects have flourished by forging their own paths. It’s important for me to celebrate their joy and power. I love flowers and Africa is filled with so many beautiful plants I wanted to build on this in my art. The vibrant indigenous flowers surrounding the women root them in their identity. My use of brown postal paper and the symbol of triangles are ever-present in my pieces; I have enjoyed integrating them in new ways. However for the first time, I’ve introduced a male interaction, melting into the female, to highlight the profound influence of women. The past six months have been dedicated to experimenting with materials, resulting in the captivating style you see in ‘Women in Bloom’.”
