Sand Art Painting - Playing the Flute

sand art painting, contemporary art, playing the flute

This unique African art piece is a favorite as it shows a powerful combination of musicians; a kora player (kora jally), a flute player and a griot. More than playing music, this scene represents the method by which African history is passed from generation to generation. Griots are an encyclopedia of the history of the society and orally recite their knowledge at important functions to the sound of music

As seen in many forms of African art, music and dancing are an important part of African culture. Music performed with traditional African musical instruments like djembe drums, koras, flutes and shakers ( shekere )and dancing are performed at every important activity in a person’s life from birth to death and everything in between.
