Demba Camara's "Untitled", 2006
Demba Camara’s “Untitled”, 2006
This is one of many of Demba Camara’s works of art, it is untitled and was created in 2006. Demba Camara was born in Bouaké, Ivory Coast in the year 1970. Today he still lives and works on all of his art in the Ivory Coast. His work is uniquely African and has many of his pieces on display in the Guggenheim Museum which is in Spain (http://www.caacart.com/pigozzi-artist.php?i=Camara-Demba&bio=en&m=70).
I liked his art because it is so unique not only since it has a strong African influence but the artist himself has put allot of unique features into the work. The first thing that struck me when seeing this work was that it seemed to mix time eras, a large influence of ancient African culture but with a touch of modern robot appeal. Secondly was that most of his works are untitled, and in fact only a description and year of production are able to be given. I am not sure why he decides to leave them untitled but it definitely adds to his unique style.
