Africa today – the day after by Simon Nijami

The artwork that grabbed my attention in virtual tour with Abu Dhabi Art was “Africa today – the day after by Simon Nijami. It grabbed my attention for variety of reasons. Firstly, i love how it corelates with what’s happening in the world at the moment i did some research and in an interview with Apollo - The International Arts Magazine, Nijami said:  “It’scalled ‘The Day After’ because I have a feeling that the time – to quote William Shakespeare – is out of joint. [In the wake of Covid-19], we are all trying to envision what the day after might look like.  i love how he represented anxious feelings that people are experiencing at time like this in a beautiful way in his artwork. He shows that he might not have control over the next day but as an artist he made propositions that come from the imagination to invent the day after.In addition, the artwork itself is attention grabbing because of the black background and the beautiful vibrant colors. Even though teal and torques take the most space in the middle part of the artwork and other colors take less place, it did have a major impact on the look of the artwork.
