Kiganda Dancers Remixed
Kiganda Dancers Remixed
Traditional Kiganda dancers are always a highlight of weddings and special occasions. The dancers perform in a simple formation, the complexity is reserved for the shaking and rotating of the hips. As the tempo of the drums increases, so does the hip shaking - amplified by the fur or straw skirt tied to the waist. The pros are impossibly fast and hypnotic. Amateurs like me draw them instead!
This is an update of the original Kiganda Dancers artwork in which I incorporated a midnight blue sky and matooke trees in the backdrop.
I commissioned a film on Kiganda Dance, which you can view below.
