Bobo Dioulasso

Bobo Dioulasso is a unique painting by Hamed Ouattara, created in 2022. The work is a visual meditation on Burkina Faso's second city — its Sudano-Sahelian architecture, its walled neighborhoods, the ochre light of the Sahel filtering through ancient facades. Bobo-Dioulasso recurs throughout Ouattara's practice as a site of memory and cultural rootedness.
