KINE AW

Kine AW is a Senegalese visual artist. Since graduating from the National School of Arts in Dakar in 2006, she has been working in one of the fifty workshops in the Village des Arts.

Her work pays tribute to African contemporary and traditional women. Traveling constantly through Africa, America and Europe, Aw's art reflects her position as an insider and an outsider to a society that witnesses societal changes in which women have active roles.

“My work examines the agent of Westernization and globalization as seminal in defining and redefining the image of African women“ at home ”on the continent“ said Kine AW.
