Description
This painting illustrates the mysterious Guardians of the Forest of Ancestral Shadows, where the spirits of the elders silently watch over the heritage of the past. Through elongated silhouettes and vibrant colors, the work expresses the connection between the visible and the invisible, between humans and their ancestors. These figures, shrouded in mystery, remind us that the memory and wisdom of the elders continue to guide the living, in a silent dance between shadow and light.

Hamed Ouattara
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.
