Celebrating African Ancestry by Thais Silva

Brazilian artist, Thais Silva, creates some of the most enthralling collages you’ll ever see. Her most recent digital art is an unadulterated celebration of African indigenous tradition and ancestry. This celebration is clear - whether in an elderly woman engulfed in prayers to her ancestors, or a young man gaining strength from a powerful traditional mask that he holds in front of him.

We’ve featured some of Thais’ works here before, but her recent collages are joyful to behold.
