From Passion to Purpose
Mission
Our mission is simple: to help artists reach more collectors - and to make it easier for collectors to discover and own art they truly connect with.
A New Chapter
Loud Youth Projects began with a simple love of art and a belief that creativity should be shared.
My journey started in Lagos, Nigeria, where I spent the last ten years living and working. I’ve moved between cultures my whole life - from Hong Kong and London to Atlanta and, most recently, Lagos. Each place taught me how creativity shapes communities and connects people across borders.
In Lagos, I spent countless hours in galleries and studios, meeting artists, watching them work, and learning the stories behind their art. For me, collecting was never just about what looked beautiful on a wall; it was about understanding the intention - the ideas, emotions, and lived experiences behind each piece. And who better to tell those stories than the artists themselves?
Some of these encounters turned into friendships and trust. Through those relationships, I saw first-hand the challenges many talented artists faced: undervaluation, lack of visibility, and limited access to international markets. I wanted to help - to create spaces where their work could be seen and discovered.
So I began curating pop-up exhibitions in upscale venues, connecting emerging African and Caribbean artists with aspiring collectors abroad. I wanted to give these creators the same platform and recognition that Western artists often enjoy - because their work deserves it.
But access goes beyond exhibitions. In today’s digital world, visibility is everything. You can be the most gifted artist alive, but if no one sees your work, how do people know you exist?
That idea that fruited this platform - a place where artists can share their work with the world and collectors can discover high-quality, limited-edition prints that feel personal and meaningful.
This is about making collecting accessible and fair, while giving artists the recognition — and the income — they deserve.
