Agbalumo Season stands a young female figure against a vivid agbalumo orange background in an Ankara dress of the exact same colour so that only her charcoal arms, face, and the dark fruit she holds are distinct from the world around her. Both hands are raised to her lips holding a single agbalumo fruit not yet bitten, eyes closed in the precise posture of anticipating taste. From the fruit before she bites it, a thin thread of sweet smoke rises, and in the smoke the silhouette of a child at play ascends, her own younger self rising from the taste of the fruit before it arrives. This delightful mixed media fine art print is Giclée printed on museum quality 310gsm Textured Fine Art Cotton Rag, limited to just 20 prints worldwide. A joyful Nigerian painting about childhood, memory, and the season that carries both. Available at Naija Art Store.
