Ordeal
“Ordeal” is a thought-provoking bronze sculpture that delves into a tribal narrative of love, tradition, and resilience.
“Ordeal” is a thought-provoking bronze sculpture crafted by the talented artist Kumi Samuel. This artwork delves into the cultural narrative of a Bodi tribe where men spend six months putting on as much weight as possible by eating fatty food to develop a large belly. This act symbolizes their sincerity and commitment to their future wives, who aspire to marry with confidence in love, stability, and the enduring traditions of their tribe.
Kumi Samuel expertly employs the ceramics shell technique in conjunction with bronze casting to bring this poignant story to life. The intricate details in the sculpture convey the emotional depth of the narrative, highlighting themes of love, tradition, and the resilience of tribal life.
