MAM’UNOBONGILE
Named after an important woman in Poswa’s home community, the Xhosa name Bongile means to praise or give thanks. The work’s depicted load – an ample stalk of bananas – honours the women of West Africa. The region is home to major banana-producing countries where the fruits are a vital source of economic empowerment for women.
