Mayamba-art
Visual arts, depth of feeling
Mayamba from Angola (1963), organizer of Kunstschatten van Schalkstad, exhibits African life. In Africa it is: 'my house, your house'. Expressiveness, a strong composition and a special color mixture characterize her artworks. Style: expressive figurative, sometimes also abstract, in which the African origin of Mayamba can be read.
I see myself on stageI express modestlyto my feelings, I dance

I drum on the “ngoma”I stand on a stage barefootI tell my story with bare hands
and freely I sing from my mouthAfrican songsof my childish origin
