Commissioned by The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge
Àyàngalú is revered as the orisa of drumming and the patron of drummers. In Yorùbá thought, àyàn is remembered as the first master drummer and drum-maker, later honoured as an orisa, and the title àyàn also names the professional drummer as a human agent of that power.
This is why many drumming lineages carry the prefix Àyàn in family names, signalling inherited custodianship of drum knowledge.
In this painting, Àyàngalú holds a dùndún (talking drum). The figure draws on the visual language of Benin court brass plaques.
This is a one-of-a-kind original artwork.
