About the Artwork

The tradition I chose is when a boy is taken hunting to be taught a part of manhood. I chose it because I thought of it being different to the culture of America. In the scene, a Motswana hunter and young boy of 15 years are hiding in the long, thin grass. The hunter has shot from a far distance, and they wait eagerly.

I have two brothers and two sisters, who are all working. One of my sisters has a baby. I like soccer and basketball, and I don’t like cleaning the dishes. I spend my free time playing soccer.

I hope to work in the Ministry of Agriculture.
