Nana Sani's paintings assemble and modify fragments from collected images to generate parallel narratives that explore notions of meaning, discourse and interpretation. From these images, she extracted details, decontextualized characters and reiterated faces to give them a hybrid appearance. The image itself is of little importance to her; it's the multiplication of its reading, of its interpretation, made possible by association and repeated metamorphosis, that she seeks.

In her paintings, everything exists at once. They present themselves as spaces for the recognition of shaped realities, where geometric shapes challenge the organicity of faces and bodies in a vocabulary sometimes borrowed from Surrealism. She plays on the power of painting to set aside realism and bear witness to a different universe. By manipulating the image, Sani superimposes different points of view, weaving open-ended stories that either let themselves be thought through entirely, or end up in the mind of the viewer.
