About this artwork
The baobab, one of Africa's most beautiful trees, symbolizes the hope of the people, the triumph of strength, and determination against scarcity and injustice. For the Laibon community, a Maasai tribe in Kenya's Loita Forest, the gods live in the forest. These diverse African communities possess incredible knowledge, which they use to preserve forests and biodiversity in general. Community members consider the felling of a tree an attack on the gods…
and their culture.
