Tuareg Blue presents a tall and lean Tuareg male figure in full desert regalia, the tagelmust face veil and turban wrapped to reveal only the eyes, robes layered in deep indigo, standing with arms at sides and facing the camera in a double concealment, the charcoal skin treatment beneath the wrapped fabric creating a face obscured twice over. He is the most hidden figure in the collection. From the narrow eye-slit of the tagelmust, a single beam of pure blue light, the exact shade of Tuareg indigo, extends horizontally across the full width of the frame at eye level. This mysterious and formally stunning mixed media fine art print is Giclée printed on museum quality 310gsm Textured Fine Art Cotton Rag, limited to just 20 prints in the world. An arresting African painting and a commanding piece of wall painting, available at Naija Art Store.
