Note from the Artist: Mordzidzi Composition III was woven outside under the apprenticeship of Master Weaver, Sebastian Dayi, in the Volta Region of Ghana, West Africa. Mordzidzi is a plain weave that means an ongoing road. I decided to sew this composition with the cloth I wove abroad and embellish it with gold breads and thread to honor my amazing experience abroad.
