The Ivorian project merges art from six past and present artists who share the common goal of tracing a line between memory and destiny to show the essential role African culture has. Dreams create images, myths, and echoes of tradition. They tell a story that can be about one’s life, especially childhood, and can develop the ability to blend together tradition and innovation, memory and vision, for a future that awaits being built.
