|a Mail Art. The background is a photocopy of Musa’s well-known series of textile paintings Who needs bananas in New Guinea? with his own photo in front; both of their faces have stamp collages. The main figure is that of the entertainer Josephine Baker based on an iconic 1929 photograph. Bananas refer to Baker’s costume of fake bananas with their implied, racist, second class metaphor. Musa often reinterprets Baker who stood her ground in the 1920’s Parisian nightlife through satirical humour; he also used this rendering of Baker to revisit the parable of Suzanne and the Elders. |
