Jean-Baptiste Djéka

N'Gohiman, 2018

Mixed media on canvas
79 x 80 x 2 cm
31 1/8 x 31 1/2 x 7/8 inches

We see the reversed Akan symbol Eue (‘woman’) again in this powerful piece where Djéka again implores us to embrace introspection as a way of embracing fundamental life truths.

Deeply embedded tribal elements are evident in this piece while Akan symbols on the black chalkboard symbolise the critical spiritual and educational roles mothers play in their children’s lives.
