In Fall 2010-Spring 2011 I traveled to Bamako, Mali to apprentice under Ba Traore to learn traditional Malian wood sculpture. During my time there I created two Chi-Wara sculptures, one female and one male. I was also able to learn traditional Mud-cloth which can be seen in the background of my sculptures (one in black and white and the other a monochrome brown).
