About Us

OUR STORY

The name Sokari, meaning "Heaven's Wish", is inspired by the cultural roots of West Africa. It symbolises our mission to bring inspiration to the world, reflecting the deep, heartfelt aspirations that drive our brand.

Sokari London started small, focusing on beautiful home decor pieces like elegant wall art, stunning vases and detailed sculptures. We wanted to bring a touch of sophistication to everyday spaces, fuelled by our belief that everyday spaces have a huge impact on mental health.

As we grew, we realized the powerful impact art has on any space. This led us to explore the rich, diverse world of African art, reconnecting with its depth, history, and cultural significance.The journey transformed us from a home decor brand into an art gallery dedicated to celebrating African art.

Today, Sokari London is a lively gallery showcasing the unique talents of African artists. Our goal is to let the world experience the heart and soul of Africa through art.

African art encompasses a rich collection of culture, traditions and histories. We collaborate with talented independent artists from across the continent, bringing you diverse and beautifully crafted pieces that reflect their individuality and skill.
