"But behind their dynamic patterns, Akpojotor's works tell a deeper story of family, femininity and female empowerment in contemporary African society." --Rochelle Beighton, CNN Under her father's guidance, the Nigerian artist Marcellina Oseghale Akpojotor (born 1989) dabbled in drawing, design, stencil work and calligraphy from an early age.
