Lima-sefulu , 2019
Acrylic on canvas 91 x 61cm

Titled “ lima-sefulu”, the Samoan word for fifty. The work is a self-portrait and an
iteration of a photo taken from a holiday to New York City in 2019 to commemorate and mark his 50th birthday. Like so many, New York City still continues to inspire Amani’s creativity.
The photo was taken at the main concourse of the WTC (World Transport) Transport Hub, Manhattan NYC. Amani happens to be wearing a Blakdot T-shirt so it’s only fitting that the portrait celebrates two significant milestones.
