This is one of my artworks exhibited in
Title: Agapfukamunwa
Size: 100x75cm
Medium: mixed media
Description:
The red with blue , blue is normal mask and I
titled it "Agapfukamunwa"
which mean mouth cover or simple facemask but this word is kind of new word in
kinyarwanda language that introduced after new covid19 virus that when people
started to wear the face-masks and that when new word came "Agapfukamunwa".
I was inspired by the covid-19 situation where
the face mask shows this real situation of covid -19 pandemic, where face mask
has been used as powerful tool used to protect people against spread of virus
and history of this covid19 pandemic.
And about the colors that I used like red
color have different mean like love, passion, life, death, danger, health, joy,
anger.... it all expressed in this but most I wanted to mean health and white
for safety but also to express the peace, freedom and hope. I got inspirational
from covid-19 pandemic that we have been fighting for almost 2 years and is
affecting everyone and every nation (every word corner) both economically, life
of people and many more.. I want to spread message of hope and love.
