Details

Los mandatos de la tradición estipulan claramente que no se podrá pescar los martes. Los pescadores descansan mientras sus embarcaciones se alinean en la orilla. Si alguien sale a pescar ese día, la ira de los dioses caerá sobre él. "Los pescadores viven según sus propias reglas y, en la zona costera de Ghana, el martes es el día en que todos descansan", explica Samuel Ashong. "Este día está reservado para reparar redes y mantener canoas". Trabajando con una fantasía de colores, Ashong ejecuta esta escena detallada en batik y la presenta en un paspartú de tablero mate, listo para enmarcar.

“Distinctive and vibrant”

This was the first piece of art I ever bought - I wanted something that captured my love for West African music. The colours are so intense without being jarring. My mum has a piece by the same artist and loves it too.

“Beautiful Batik”

The art is beautiful and will be a great addition to our home. The packaging did protect the batik, but the matting is creased on one entire short end.
