Selengei Print

Selengei is a town in Kenya in the Rift Valley region with a population of under 1000. This is also the abode of Kenya’s Maasai tribe which has become an icon for the richness and diversity of our country’s culture, a people whose traditions, beliefs and routines have changed little since the dawn of our history. The Maasai live in Kraals arranged in a circular fashion. The fence around the kraal is made of acacia thorns, which prevent lions from attacking the cattle. Warriors, or all the young men in the community, are in charge of protecting livestock from predators and enemies, and, these days, of taking cattle to far away pastures during the dry season. 'Selengei' is a painting about 2 warriors who are sitting on a large rock in the wilderness, protecting their heritage and their cattle. The painting has a 5 inch white mount all around giving it an illusion that the warriors are staring into vastness. It is framed with 4 pieces of 3inch wide, heavy cyprus wood with knots which was naturally dried over a year, the bark peeling off on its own. Selengei needs to be displayed in a large room for full impact.
