AYA, ADINKRA

Mural painting by Skount in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Afrikan inspiration

Amsterdam. Netherlands

Quick wall painted based on an illustration I made inspired by Aya symbol and meaning.

Aya is an important Adinkra symbol in Akan culture that represents endurance and resourcefulness. Aya can also mean ‘I’m not afraid of you’ or ‘I’m independent of you’, representing strength, defiance against oppression, and independence. Many people choose to wear Aya drawings or tattoos, claiming that they can feel their power and inner strength. A person who wears the Aya symbol suggests that he/she has endured many difficulties in life and face various obstacles which he/she has overcome.

AYA, SHE IS COSMOS. Acrylic on 300 gr Lana cotton paper. 23 x 31 cm.
