Akuaba appears with a multicolored headdress in a sculpture that inspires admiration. She is the legendary fertility doll carried by Ashanti women when wishing to conceive. Ibrahim Mohammed carves her image from sese wood, expertly replicating the artistic styles and customs of the Ashanti people. Adorned with iron hoop earrings, the fertility doll is adorned with recycled glass beads. Mohammed finishes this sculpture with an antique, rugged finish.
