Soul of africa

The suprise of this quilt done for the "Music" exhibition is that I have scanned a CD that was just like any standard CD.

Then it came out with different colors which were matching with the background fabric. Then I had just to print them onto the fabric.

The dancers and the CD are hand applique as well as the quilt

La Lettre

As in many african countries people are illiterate, they have to use their own language.
This litlle woven doll (in Senegal) is carried on the back of the young girls who are pubescent, meaning: I am on the market, who will marry me?

Who am I?

I have the feeling to be 2 persons in one . Whith my right brain giving its instructions seen on my left side, eveything is heavy.I am sad, tired, negative, blind, looking at the past... From my left brain is sprouting my imagination, my creativity, my smile, everything that I like to do.
In my uterus there is the sex pleasure and the children but also the pain.
All my roots are in Africa, I am a belgian white african and it is not easy to find my place here in Nassogne.
Sometimes I can get mad, I could cut one of my ear like a famous man did it before me.
I will carry on trying to find the answer.

expo Quevaucamps

Linda and myself have been invited to participate at the exhibition organized by the Couleur Fil ( color thread) association in september. We will have to work on the words: "step" and "footprint".
