Sankofa - Back To the Root

SANKOF - is adinkra symbol from Ghana - it means go back to the root and heritage for wisdom. This poster is made by Maya, a Chinese worked as a volunteer in Ghana with us in Winneba Open Digital Village in Sep. 2009. She went to the rural village Jukwa where we were part of the celebration of the new chief installation. She printed out 20 3/5 ... Read Moreposters of the portrait of the people in the village and post them at places in the village as a way to show her appreciation to villagers' welcome to her as a new comer. This poster is one of them where I embraced a village woman who welcomed me in the celebration. The reason I dressed that way in my regalia is because I am installed as a Queen Mother of Denkyira Kingdom in Ghana Chieftaincy in Aug. 8. 2008 as the QM for development and to look out for the well being of its people.
