King Houndekpinkou, Sculptures for Benin Embassy to Japan, 2019, Commission, Tokyo, Japan.

Pictures of small sculptures (8) commissioned by the Benin Embassy to Japan back in 2019. The sculpture represents a traditional Beninese saying of King Ghézo. A rough translation follows : “The holed jar contains the water that will give the country happiness. If all the children came, with their fingers assembled to plug the holes, the liquid would not flow and the country would be saved”
