My ancestor

• Lumba was my ancestor .

• She lived in Ivory Coast and belonged to the people Abron from Ghana in the fifteenth century .

• Although Lumba was a daughter of the people , she was a highly respected person because she was a sculptor .

• Instead of the sculpture is very important in Ivory Coast it is present in religion , politics, social life .

• One day the King Adou Bini asked him to produce a large number of masks " zoomorphic " ( animal-shaped ) that all the inhabitants of the Fulani able to wear.

• He also asked him to gather all the people in his kingdom , and gave him a period of 7 days, with no other information .

• The people had only 60 inhabitants, was then a feasible task for Lumba .

• She carved masks days and nights without stopping.

• She was happy to share his works for everyone.

• The last day she gave each a mask that matched their personalities.

• They all headed to the kingdom of Adou Bini .

• If the King had ordered to bring all the people with masks, it is because the Portuguese explorers arrived was to take gold in the region.

• The goal was to scare with these masks.

• Indeed, the explorers had frightened ' s these masks figures Antidotes Hyenas and Lions , and escaped .

• To thank Lumba , the king gave him a privileged spot in the kingdom , she became a sculptor of civilization Fulani Abron .

• I must say that I had a vision of abstract art, but I understood from Lumbra that Art can become a peaceful weapon against any types of problems , political, social ...

• I found this way of defend this very inspiring.

• His will and perseverance to do a lot of masks in such a short time has shown me that it is possible to exceed the limits of an area we like to do . Like
