Discover the Vibrant Spirit of Africa

Immerse yourself in the rich, vibrant culture of Africa as Art by Dangana proudly presents its latest exhibition. This unique showcase, created by Alheri Bingi – a talented artist and immigrant from West Africa – invites you to experience
the powerful intersection of African heritage and Canadian identity through the medium of textile art.

Each piece in this captivating collection is meticulously handcrafted using authentic African fabrics, weaving stories of resilience, community, and celebration. The dominant hues of green and orange serve as vibrant symbols of Alheri’s journey. Green echoes the lush flag of Nigeria, her birthplace, while orange reflects the warm tones of Canada’s iconic maple leaves – a representation of the new home she has embraced in Saint John, New Brunswick.

Through textile artistry, Alheri Bingi brings to life the essence of African culture – connecting viewers to the rhythms, colors, and spirit of the continent. This exhibition stands as a powerful narrative of cultural representation, identity, and the beauty of merging two worlds.

Don’t miss this opportunity to witness art that bridges continents. Come celebrate diversity, creativity, and the universal language of art.

Join us from January 17 to March 7, 2025 and let the colors of Africa and Canada tell a story that resonates deep within.
