SHIELD COVERING 1996
MEDIA: canvas, ilala palm, acrylic, polypropylene, polyethylene, bone, wood
DIMENSIONS: 172cms x 122cms x 20cms
 
The shield is a symbol of protection of the Zulu nation. My interpretation combines modern day synthetics and indigenous palm leaves. As in the first work I see the skulls adding a sense of mystery and the presence of the ancestors.
