About this artwork
Mischief Maker is part of a series I began on symmetry, which started with a painting called Starting Something You Can’t Finish. In that painting I depicted the seven major chakras, although in Mischief Maker I featured one of the many orisha’s found in Santeria, a Cuban religious system brought over by African slaves and merged with Catholicism. An orisha is a spirit which offers protection or qualities to those who invoke it’s powers, as found…
in various syncretic religions throughout the world, such as Santeria, Voodoo, or Candomblé, to name a few. In this case I depicted Ibeji, which is an single orisha manifested as a set of twins who offer up joy, happiness, abundance, and mischief making. The twins are called Taewo (male, red) and Kehinde (female, blue) and are represented in the painting by a rooster and chicken head.
