Overview

Nwanne M Nwaanyị is a visual stem that traces the intangible roots two sisters share, tethered by something far stronger than blood and deeper than soil. They meet again at the first place they ever called home, the womb, to cry out the songs of their mother’s mother, those only an Igbo woman knows the tune to.
