Artwork Description

Kalekeni Kagiye ( Let Him Dance )

0.0 x 0.0

I come from the Eastern Province of Zambia and people from my area are known for their warrior fame having descended from the Nguni Speaking region of South Africa, they fled from King Shaka of the Zulu whose Mfekane caused migratory patterns that exist today in Southern Africa. Here in Zambia are known as the Ngoni, they celebrate the history and cultural values through a traditional ceremony known as Ncwala , celebration of the first fruits and crops from the faming season. Its a great moment of reflection and much is expresed through dance and song. Kalekeni Kagiye is one of the great song I recall when I attended one festival and its my dedication to that memory.
