Abstract

“Behind the Hidden Culture,” created by Chinedu Chukwurah Francis, is a touching oil painting on canvas measuring 40 x 60 inches. The artwork captures a serene and tender moment between a maiden and her friend, seated comfortably on the sand. The maiden is gently plaiting her friend’s hair, while simultaneously cradling a child in her arms. This intimate scene emphasizes the importance of nurturing, community, and motherhood in Igbo culture.
