Djika (2020)

KURA SHOMALI

Mixed media on paper
113 x 77 cm
White shadow box frame
Framed: 123 x 87 cm
Available

Kura Shomali amuses himself here by imagining a “wannabe” djika, who has never set foot in Europe in all likelihood, but copies the dress code, based on his rather romanticised idea of it.
