  • THE STORY
    gnawa-lila-jaune

    A celebration through song and dance.

    A remembrance of Gnawa history.

    Bondage and freedom.

    A ceremony to connect with the spirits and the saints.

    The melody pierces your soul. The incense intoxicates. The dancing invigorates.

    Keep the energy going because it’s an all night affair. Your body can’t stop-- won’t stop-- moving until the morning.

  • THE PROCESS
    The different phases of creating the Lila print: watercolor painting, digital renderings, and textile art.
