Ndebele Old Woman - SOLD Painting

Description: South African Ndebele culture art, with its geometric patterns and bright colours is the inspiration for this body of work. The patterns feature vivid colours, as well as added beads and crochet work for depth and texture. About the artist’s work: Rina’s accounting background speaks of a mind that enjoys order and structure. The clean lines and shapes of these Ndebele-inspired geometric patterns combine the two parts of Rina’s personality and reflect her energy and creativity in harmony with her ordered, structured mind. About the Ndebele Tribes in South Africa: The vibrant symbols and expressions communicate personal prayers, self-identification, values, emotions, and marriage for the Ndebele tribe in South Africa. The women of the tribe are often the tradition carriers and the main designers of the wall art of their home. The tradition and style of house painting is passed down through the families from generation to generation by the mothers. A well-painted home shows that the woman of the household is a good wife and mother.
