 GODDEX

Commissioned piece for small business in SE Portland. Acrylic on cinderblock, Summer 2019.

Mural oversees the Montavilla farmer's market and is based on West African beliefs systems. Nana Buluku (Goddex) birthed the sun and the moon and is associated with the earth, both it's bounty and it's destructiveness. Orunmila is an Orisha of wisdom, knowledge, divinity, and human destiny, and is the only Orisha to witness the creation of earth. We exist on this earth, a part of this earth, what are we doing?
