Description This is an abstract representation of women and children bringing water home from the stream home. It is the celebration of the life style of a typical African woman in a traditional setting as home maker and comforter at home. While the man does the bread winning. She is a source of refreshment both at home and in a contemporary society she is no longer confined to the home. She has become as communal and social as she is domestic.This painting is in ink,watercolor and acrylic on paper
Ekuase Wilson, benin city ng. Member Since September 2012 Artist Statement I am Wilson Ekuase I schooled at auchi polytechnic where studied art education. Since then I have devoted great deal of my time working with kids and teenagers towards developing the next generation of African fine artists. I'm currently working on some works of my own. My inspirationn come from physical phenomena around me; liquid things like various actions of water and and oil,gaseous elements like fire and smoke even aerial view of gaseous planet in space. You could also see some inluence of solid and organic forms on my abstract paintings. For me there will always be interactions between world without and the world within me; between the elements of nature and my African heritag on my works. I will not limit my self to the abstract because I do love to do some interesting land scape, human studies, and other of interest or fascination to me at any given time. I will be reproducing some of my works currently on paper, in larger formats canvas or boards
