Take My Pain Away (2022) is a limited-edition giclée print by Nigerian contemporary artist Toju Clarke. The work reflects Clarke’s distinctive practice, where digital processes intersect with sgraffito techniques to explore emotional release, vulnerability, and healing.

The figure appears suspended between comfort and discomfort. Scratched textures and layered surfaces suggest both tension and relief, transforming physical marks into a visual language of mental and emotional strain. Clarke treats the act of scratching not as damage, but as a necessary gesture — a way of confronting pain and creating space for release.

Rooted in personal experience and wider conversations around mental health and identity, the work speaks to the African body as both resilient and exposed. Its quiet intensity invites slow looking, rewarding viewers with subtle details embedded within the surface.

Printed on Ilford Cotton Textured paper using archival giclée methods, each edition is signed and numbered by the artist. Take My Pain Away is well suited to collectors drawn to tactile, emotionally driven contemporary African art with strong conceptual grounding.
