Queen Cheeta (Inspired by Cheetos) Cheeta grew up near a factory that produced fast food and snacks, with waste and pollution often spilling into the surrounding areas. Her village was engulfed in poverty, but Cheeta had a spark of creativity that couldn’t be dimmed. She collected the bright orange wrappers from Cheetos, transforming them into powerful statements of resistance. Her art, adorned with glitter, acrylic, and oil, shows how something deemed disposable can be turned into gold. Her journey is one of reclaiming what was discarded, not only in terms of materials but also in terms of her life, proving that nothing is too broken to be reborn. Each painting available for purchase is a unique blend of art and storytelling. While these are printed copies of the artist's original work, each piece is elevated by the artist's personal touch. Dina Kabdolla will add her signature style to every order, incorporating elements such as resin, packaging, collected fashion pieces, glitter, and even carefully selected trash. Each painting will also feature hand-applied oil detailing, making it a one-of-a-kind artwork. All proceeds from Kabdolla's artwork directly support our family nonprofit, Hope Road, dedicated to empowering children and mothers from broken families in Africa and other underserved regions. By purchasing these unique art pieces, you’re not just acquiring art—you’re contributing to a mission of hope. Kabdolla’s vision is to use art as a vehicle for change, traveling to teach, inspire, and remind communities that creativity can ignite hope and transformation, even in the most challenging circumstances. Your support helps turn this vision into reality. Just as the girls in her artwork overcame challenges, so too can anyone who believes in the power of their dreams.
