Anyanwu II is a derivative of the print Anyanwu, featured in my series "The Sacred Star of Isis" made in 2017. Anyanwu is a solar deity and translates to "eye of the sun" in Igbo.

I was inspired by Octavia Butler's character Anyanwu in her book Wild Seed. She is a shape-shifter who possesses the ability to alter her cells and transform or metamorphism when necessary for survival. I find this to be symbolic when we think about the experiences of African descendants in the Diaspora.

This photo-based work was piece in Freetown, Sierra Leone in 2017.
