  Bogobo Shield (EV 8/25)



Calica,Holly-which road? Xango's Wrath
which road? Xango's Wrath / Other / 6 X 6 / $75.00 USD

Description: The second etched print in the Orisha series, Xango is the Yoruba diety representing lightning. He is a warrior spirit and is shown here fighting for his beliefs in an ancient Pilipino warrior tradition-beheading his enemy. When I made this print I was thinking of my ancestors, who risked beheading during war times and perhaps also behead their tribal enemies.

Statement
Art and spirit, as life and spirit, are inseparable for me. My art is reflective of the communities I interact with, nature around me, and the world politic through the repetition of colors, rhythm, texture and themes. In gratitude to my ancestors, the spirits and the creator, I make art.
