This original sculpture is artisan Emmanuel Opoku Asante's interpretation of a Fante fertility doll. Such dolls would be given to couples that are having difficulty in conceiving a child. The Ghanaian artisan carves the female figure by hand from sese wood and adorns it with recycled glass beads and a loincloth.

"Never Feel Alone"
Democracy and unity, a beautiful reminder of this sculpture to meditate upon when feeling alone and hopeless -- We are never alone and hope is very much alive, showing itself at the most tiniest sliver of love, accompanied by strength and perseverance. Love this piece!
