Good afternoon great people of hive, I am not so new on the hive Blockchain but it is today I came across this great community and I must say I really love what is happening here, I love art work and I hope to actively participate in this community.
Ok friends, today After a very long time I had to go over to the market to buy some food stuffs, while heading to the market something attracted my attention, the street art along the way.
I could not have a better view of the art work right in the market and so I had to buy the food stuffs first before I could go over and have a better view of it.
After buying, I had to get closer to the art work
Here is it, a very beautiful art piece showcasing a hardworking woman, a beautiful African woman who is fruitful and never relenting effort In her trade. In my own perspective, this artwork acknowledges the significant role women play in promoting local economy.
Actually I do not know the artist that did this great piece but this art work is located at Itam in Uyo Local Government Area, in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria. It is place very close to the Itam market.
The fruit filled basket represents nourishment, fertility and women roles as being care givers and providers, I think this art piece was installed to encourage the women in their everday market activities.
This whole art work caught a lot of viewers and so many attention from people, turning over to the other side I saw lots of people and some artists too trying to create some other beautiful piece of art work, I will surely get back to see what they had done and how beautiful it will look.
I admired every art piece and I must commend whoever came up with this idea, that was indeed thoughtful of the person. Indeed this captures the beauty and strength of African women.
