This is beautiful thank you

[Twitter post by Saeed Jones, @the ferocity. Text is “Hello, somebody.” A four panel comic follows, showing two eagles resting in armchairs. One is reading a newspaper, the other is sipping tea. They have mildly condescending expressions. Text:

Tea Eagle: Do you think the owl is a predator?

Newspaper Eagle: Of course not. He’s never bothered me.

Tea Eagle: Exactly.

[beat panel]

Tea Eagle: No idea what Mr. Mouse was going on about.

African Canvas Margaret Courtney-Clarke

The Art of Africa is a casualty
of colonial exploitation, surviving
principally in the museums of
other countries. ~ 
Nadine Gordimer

My objective in this work is to document an extraordinary art form – vernacular art and architecture in West Africa – that is not transportable and therefore not seen in museums around the world. It is an attempt to capture the unseen Africa, a glimpse into the homes and into the spirit of very proud and dignified peoples. In much the same way as I photographed the art of Ndebele women, I have drawn on my personal affinity for the art itself, for methods, design and form, rather than the socio-anthropological or political realities of a people or continent in dilemma. These images portray a unique tradition of Africa, a celebration of an indigenous rural culture in which the women are the artists and the home her canvas.”

[Images show a variety of West African women using their hands to create brightly painted patterns on what appear to be clay or mud-brick walls. Patterns vary from intricate, isolated white or black mandalas to buildings covered with multi-coloured triangles or zigzags. One has stylized images of leaves and other shapes. One shows zigzag relief work into the wall itself.]
