EXCERPT from African Mythology by Patricia Ann Lynch and Jeremy Roberts + Agave longiflora, botanical illustration by M.E. Eaton (1922)

Just playing around with text and images but this original text is an incredible source. The free pdf version can be accessed here and It’s probably the most extensive account on African mythology there is.

frames captured from our recent visit to bungoma. a village town blessed with immense beauty and simple joys…where we come from.

meet Nora [see photo 001].taking a portrait image like such,in these parts, would have the subject (mostly among the older generation) accuse you of taking the photo to use it for witchcraft purposes /among other superstitions.

still.

we were lucky to get this picture on condition that we bought her bananas…no hesitation there!

                           glazed with a gait of earned grace

                   sun’s rays found abode in her skin - glistening

                             uncovering grounds [treasures],

              untold eyes tell of a torn past; albeit a stride to conquer.

                                                                              - coruscate.
