British Nigerian artist Dylema paints African women using gold
The artist known as Dylema was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). She said painting her own portrait helped her to accept herself.
Now she hopes to do the same for other African women on a journey of self-discovery. Her work is on display at Somerset House in London.
