Sanye
A 1996 portrait of an elderly woman in Msabaha, Malindi.
From the Sanye community. She wears a navy blue wrap knotted on one shoulder. This is a common traditional African way of wearing a body wrap for both men and women.
Her feet and hands seem to be bigger than the rest of her body, this is an intentional decision by the artist to represent things as they are viewed by the naked eye as opposed to how they would look captured in a photograph.
$400 – $900
