Mask and Symbols

Item # 2050067

Godwin Atta Geoman

<p>Godwin Atta Geoman's paintings tend to depict scenes of villages, beaches, markets, and African people. Each work is imbued with a sense of tradition and heritage. Nature and all that surrounds him is a neverending source of inspiration.</p>

<p>Fifteen women carry calabash gourds on their heads, each gourd filled with palm wine. Godwin Atta Geoman selects a bright palette of primary hues for this stylized collective portrait. This is the traditional way women carry virtually everything, the artist says.Four masks gaze at the viewer in a painting filled with West African symbols. Surrounded by traditional adinkra symbols, the masks represent Ghanaian identity. Shaped like a bird looking over its shoulder, the sankofa tells viewers to learn from the past. Chief of all adinkra symbols, the adinkrahene stands for greatness and leadership while the symmetrical gye nyame with its rotating blades represents God's omnipotence and immortality.</p>
