Red Lady
Description
Red Lady is a quiet, introspective portrait that blends pen drawing with fabric and newspaper collage on sinacote paper. The closed eyes suggest inner calm and self-awareness, while the vivid red textile radiates vitality, strength, and ancestral presence. The split face and layered materials speak to duality—tradition and modern life, inner reflection and outward identity. Through found fabrics and restrained line work, Vangani transforms everyday materials into a powerful meditation on African femininity, resilience, and cultural continuity.Try it!
