Numb The Pain by Akanji Studio

Numb The Pain
60 x 60 cm | Digital art, textured foiling, acrylic hand-painting | One-of-one (no prints)

“Numb The Pain” is part of the Moon Crescent Blood collection, created to honour Sickle Cell Awareness Month. This piece translates the invisible struggle of living with sickle cell into a visceral visual language, layers of digital art fused with hand-painted acrylic textures and foiled details that catch the light like resilience breaking through suffering.

Every mark is intentional: the layering reflects the weight of pain carried in silence, while the metallic foiling represents beauty and strength that persists despite it.

This is a one-of-one original artwork. No prints will be made.

Exhibited at Boxpark, London, September 2025.
