Everyone loves them
Standing back to back, a man and woman seem to become one body. The woman wears red cotton earrings, and both wear bracelets and braids. Superbly carved by Salihu Ibrahim, this sculpture is representative of the Dogon people from Burkina Faso. "They are joined and so close to each other. This is a love that cannot be broken," Ibrahim says.
