The Shepherdess

Story of  “The Shepherdess”:
The matriarchal system of Akan society, an Ivorian ethnic group, is the heart of this work.
The mother is the nurturer.
The red skin of the cow symbolizes the blood of the mother, which the child inherits.
The yellow evokes the sun, witnessing the deep alchemy between these two human beings.
The character in white is the metaphor of the mother’s unshakable spirit guiding the child throughout life.
