Ritual of Ancient Energies” is an abstract artwork blending ancestral spirituality with contemporary forms. Drawing inspiration from African cultural traditions, it explores the connection between unseen forces and sacred rituals through elongated figures and mystical symbols. The vibrant contrast of colors and textures creates a powerful movement, evoking a rain of spiritual energy or light descending to the earth. This evokes a dialogue between the spiritual and physical realms, resonating with universal themes of transformation and energy that transcend cultures. In a world where modernity and tradition intersect, this piece invites viewers to reflect on the enduring power of ritual and connection to ancient wisdom, which remains relevant across all societies.

am a self-taught visual artist blending painting, sculpture, and installation to explore themes of resilience, spirituality, and cultural identity. My work combines acrylic, pastel, natural pigments, cola juice, and reclaimed materials like leather, reflecting my commitment to ecological awareness and innovative art-making.
Influenced by African traditions and animistic beliefs, I create vibrant compositions where human and animal figures merge into symbolic realms. I integrate sacred letters and numbers into my artworks, turning them into both visual narratives and spiritual talismans.
Facing the security crisis in Burkina Faso, I have developed a body of work including armor-like sculptures and protective canvases, inspired by cultural resistance and collective heroism.
Through my art, I invite global audiences to connect with African stories of resilience, beauty, and struggle, offering a fresh perspective on contemporary art rooted in ancestral values.
