Awa camara (10 resultados)

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Celebrating eight decades of Camara's visionary totemic sculptures that visualize motifs of motherhood and ancestry Gathering select works completed between 1990 and 2022, this volume showcases the octogenarian Senegalese ceramicist Seyni Awa Camara's (born 1939) totemic sculptures. Evoking subjects ranging from bestiaries to motor vehicles and maternity scenes, Camara's sculptural forms are divined from her dreams.
