Black is Gold I by Nadia Wamunyu is a radiant work of Black Art, painted in watercolour on paper. With luminous tones and fluid brushstrokes, Wamunyu transforms portraiture into a poetic meditation on strength, identity, and cultural pride.

The interplay of gold and shadow symbolises both the fragility and the richness of Black identity, while the expressive features of the subject echo resilience and presence. In her signature style, Wamunyu uses watercolour not only as a medium but as a language of memory and affirmation.

As part of Afrikanizm Art’s curated collection, Black is Gold I is a one-of-a-kind artwork that bridges delicacy with power — a collector’s piece that celebrates heritage and the enduring brilliance of Black Art in contemporary practice.
