At Akanka our mission is to design experiences that make people and organizations happier, kinder, and more creative. One of these experiences involves connecting more people to Nature in different ways. Why? Observing Nature has been shown to improve productivity and concentration, reduce stress, improve one’s mood, and more. Knowing this, we’d been keen on getting Nature into more homes as art. This is why we’re excited to announce our first art series centered on lessons from Nature.
We call it Stars. Stars is a wellness art series of photos with different types of flowers gently cradled between our fingers. The theme of this art series is self-discovery of the star within us. This is inspired and adapted from Lupita Nyongo’s bestselling children’s book “Sulwe” – a story about a young girl who wishes for her dark skin to be lighter. It’s a story centered on colorism and learning to love oneself, no matter one’s skin tone.
Stars is a reminder that following the three steps of the Framework of Intention – slowing down, giving gratitude, and taking responsibility – helps us build the creative confidence to become the stars that we truly are.
To get the frames to your homes, we’ve partnered with Memoriz who’ll be handling the printing, framing, and delivery of your wall tiles. With your sticky wall tiles, there’ll be no need for a hammer and nails, which means there’ll be no damage to your walls. All you’ve got to do is stick them.
You can buy this art via Paystack and have them delivered straight to your doorstep at an early-bird price of N99,000 for a set of three tiles. Bring a slice of Nature, creativity, and happiness into your home or workspace today. 💚🖼
