African Woman by Fary Sakho
by Fary Sakho from Senegal
Painting
Fary Sakho of Senegal paints an archetypal portrait of an African woman
In this work I attempt to illustrate the image of African women; joyful, natural, spontaneous; whose elegance and refinement is expressed through these disparate elements (blue, yellow, red, orange, green and fabric), but which are intimately linked to provide a consistent image of the woman, symbol of the country as any mère. The sun upon her dress reflects in my eyes (as the colors and tastes are not discussed), the sense of connection and above all, the love we feel towards our mothers as well as the signs of life and hope.
