Tempera on canvas. 2008. 33 х 42 cm
Amma – the Great god of Dogon and Sirius - put under care of first man Nommo to populate Earth on a ship which contains everything existing on the earth. He was cycling for ‘eight periods’ across the sky from east to west bending sometimes to north sometimes to south occupying all sky as a rainbow girding the Earth. That is how he entered into ‘happy marriage’ with the Earth. The Sirius - Sigi-tolo energy is blue and silver, the Sun energy is yellow and gold. The picture shows the process of energy exchange between the Sirius and the Earth with the help of the Sun and Nommo ship.
