Support Itan: Part 1 Today! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/itan-part-one-africa-art/x/15991312#/Hello Everyone! It has been a while but rest assured I have been steady working and awesome project that has been years in the making. Itan: Part 1 is a graphic novel that is based on the oral literature traditions of the Yoruba people of West Africa. The comic is heavily influenced by Yoruba art and aesthetics, combining traditional West african textile and sculpture traditions with western painting and illustration. Drawing directly from Ifa, the vast corpus of divination poetry used by the followers of the Yoruba Orisa traditions worldwide (as well as other Yoruba verbal arts) I am relaying important narratives rooted in African thought.We are asking for 250 early adopters to preorder the comic which is set for completion in November 2017. A total of $5000 is needed to print and distribute a 500 copy run of the graphic novel.visit “Here” to find out how to donate. Support Itan: Part 1 today! -- source link
