Driven by her passion for visual storytelling, Shai creates vibrant pieces that primarily sit within the realm of portraiture. Her Ghanaian-British background heavily influences her work, which colourfully explores themes of identity, black joy, healing and diaspora. She is inspired most by her observation of what it means to be a black woman in this complex world. Just a glimpse of life through our lens, shared experiences and self healing.

 

Shai creates the kind of art she wishes existed when she was growing up.
