Believe it or not, these stunning pieces of art from Kenya are created from banana fiber. Each of these unique pictures is absolutely one of a kind, even though the scenes depicted portray similar aspects of life in Africa. Working with banana fiber is very difficult and time consuming and thus adds a dimension to the aritst's work, making it all the more special. After stripping coarse bark from the plant, it must be soaked to be pliable. Then the fiber from inside of the bark is stripped away and some is dyed before using. These scenes, mounted on a board, bordered by burlap or black cloth, will give an adventurous feel to your home whether hung singly or as a grouping.
