Fulani Woman from Tasha Ibrahim
2005 40" X 30" acrylic and gold leaf on canvas
I met this woman in Tasa Ibrahim. I'm not sure why she has lost some of her hair. I was struck by the fact that her face was almost androgynous. The frame has been painted with some of the traditional Fulani embroidery patterns taken from a piece of clothing I brought back. A year later the cloth still has a pungent perfume.
