vibrations, AGBADU PETER's work reflects his belief that “chaos leads to beauty, as
everything is constantly changing.” Currently, he is on a quest to reconnect with African
traditional and cultural practices, showcasing the diverse forms of traditional worship
and the vibrant energies of dance. In a world marked by constant change, AGBADU PETER draws inspiration from his environment, transforming everyday experiences into compelling subject matter. His impressionistic approach to color and form has garnered recognition, distinguishing his
work in a contemporary art landscape often dominated by abstraction.
