The wonderful work of Dawn Okoro 

Dawn Okoro's work is informed by the composition techniques used in fashion photography. Using oil, acrylic, and pencil, she incorporates photography, collage, and ideas from popular culture. Her artwork embodies space, movement, pattern, design, texture, and color; as well as lived experiences and self-reflexivity. Self-reflexivity is a process by which she critically examines the experiences (exterior and interior) that shape her everyday life and those that surround her.

Dawn Okoro holds a Bachelor's degree from the University of Texas at Austin and a Juris Doctor from Texas Southern University. Her work has been exhibited at RFA Gallery in Harlem, Texas Southern University Museum, Rice University, and the Texas Biennial.

I've been following @dawnokoro for a couple years, so I was thrilled to have met her in person 💜. I am glad that we both had our works in auction for @amrefusa's artball! #ifychiejina #dawnokoro #blackartists #nigerianamerican #artauction (at Milk Gallery | New York)
