Provenienza : Provenance Acquired from the Jack Bell Gallery, London in 2014. Saatchi Collection. Exhibited London, Saatchi Gallery, Pangea II: New Art from Africa and Latin America, 2015 Literature Saatchi Gallery, Pangea II: New Art from Africa and Latin America, 2015, p.46 Armand Boua lives and works in the Ivory Coast capital of Abidjan. A bustling, urban and industrial West African city, its children are at the heart of Boua's work. Street children are vulnerable to abduction, slave labour and sex trafficking. The dark undertones are nonetheless evident with materials such as torn card, scraped paint and tar. However once all these textures are merged together, they show children smiling and often playing sport. Creating a tension between their innocence and the danger that they face.
