Horse-Themed Cotton Wall Art from Ghana, "Hope"

Says Ghanaian artist Seth Agyei Bekoe, "Be hopeful and persistent, since these two will propel one for greatness." He works with colorful cotton thread against straw board to create an evocative piece of wall art. The yellow silhouettes of two wild horses run side-by-side, framed against an abstract green background that evokes the forest. The horses are realized in openwork that creatively exposes the board underneath.
