Ghanaians believe that the High Priest, Okomfo Anokye conjured the stool, gilded in pure gold, to fall from heaven. It is a symbol of the unification of the Asante kingdom by chief Osei-tutu. These spoken histories serve as a reminder of who I am as a Ghanaian-American. Each story contributes to a collective memory inscribed into the hearts Ghanaians no matter where they may live. My work examines the role of messaging, perception, and the potential to misread intention behind culturally relevant ideologies and practices. http://nubiama.com/Complete http://nubiama.com/following/nubiama.com/Complete Sun, 21 Aug 2011 20:58:04 +0000 nubiama.com 1892257 COMPLETE is a glucometer and case for Type II Diabetics ages 25-65 with active lifestyles Designer, Fabricator COMPLETE is a glucometer and case that attempts to simplify the lives of diabetics by providing one unit that houses all of the necessary tools needed to medicate.
