  3. "A Big English Breakfast" Pamela AllenKingston, Ontario, Canada2006 39x29 • Recycled and commercial fabrics, big stitch, raw edge applique, machine quilting. Embellished with found objects , styrofoam fruit and vegetables, kitchen cutlery. • I confess I am a lover of food. It is a great disappointment to me that I married a man who is Ho Hum about eating. But being British, he did introduce me to the joys of a big breakfast. This hanging is densely quilted with all kinds of culinary delights, from corn on the cob to fish to avocado to grapes!

  6. The Lulua (or Bena-Lulua) are a small, caste-based tribal group living in the Southern Congo, where they migrated in the 18th century. They are governed as a series of semi-independent micro-states that come together under a single chief in times of social strife. Their society underwent major transformations in the late 19th century due to the efforts of a reformative king named Kalambam; for our purposes, he ordered the burning of “cult” carvings, so old Lulua pieces are somewhat rarer than might otherwise have been suspected. Secular objects were unaffected, so pipes, neck-rests and the like are not uncommon. Figures are usually very ornately decorated with scarifications, long necks and often a spike arrangement atop the head. The few known masks are associated with funerary and circumcision rituals, and while they vary considerably, they usually have large eyes and complex scarifications. Intuitively, one should imagine the social effect of masks, in their original contexts. While fairly unthreatening in its current metier, one can imagine the effect it might have had on susceptible adolescent boys as it loomed out of the darkness on the night of their circumcision. This is a rare and exceptional piece of African art.
