Belkis Ayón

Belkis Ayón was a Cuban printmaker who specialized in the technique of collography. Ayón created large, highly-detailed allegorical collographs based on Abakuá, a secret, all-male Afro-Cuban society. Her work is often in black and white, consisting of ghost-white figures with oblong heads and empty, almond-shaped eyes, set against dark, patterned backgrounds.
