Maasai Dual Weave Wall Art – 'Enkátá Olng’ej' (Echo Form) – Concentric Ritual Quartet.

Maasai Dual Weave Wall Art – 'Enkátá Olng’ej' (Echo Form) – Concentric Ritual Quartet.

Shape silence. Reflect rhythm. Echo presence. This quartet of woven discs draws from the Maasai concept of Olng’ej—a word that evokes echo, form, and ancestral symmetry. Each piece is a visual mantra, a geometric offering of balance and memory.

Crafted by artisans in Kajiado and Laikipia, the concentric patterns reflect traditional adornment and ceremonial shields. The black-and-white palette honors duality—light and shadow, day and night, form and void.
