I absolutely love these electrifying but still vaguely haunting paintings by Senegalese artist Soly Cissé. His work was featured at the Milan furniture fair last month as part of Stephen Burks' "M'Afrique" installation for Italian furniture manufacturer, Moroso. Read about it on iconeye. Also part of the installation was the work of Nubian artist Fathi Hassan (whom I'll be featuring shortly) and the photographs of architect David Adjaye.

Hello, Coco!

I am wrapped.
Beautiful work.

I'm loving this artist as well as the new design of the blog. :)

Whoops! I'm such a hypocrite. This one of my favorite blogs bar none! Oversight corrected. Place secured, locked and loaded. You totally rock!
Thank you so much for introducing me to a new artist. Her work is moving and inspiring. I have sen thousands of blogs, but this is by far in my top 2. Keep up the extraordinary work!
