Mlengeya’s artistic practice is cantered around the theme of strength, particularly the strength found in womanhood. A self-taught artist who initially trained in finance, she has developed a distinct, minimalist style that uses negative space in a captivating and powerful way.
Her monochromatic depictions of women and girls—often featuring her sisters, mother, aunts, and friends—are rendered with exquisite detail. This sparse approach allows viewers to engage with her subjects in their full presence, free from distractions or background noise.
