Ntgharị Uche, meaning “reflection of thought” or “turning of the mind,” shows a young girl encountering her reflection for the first time, framed by Uli symbols.
A mask begins to form in white paint across her reflection. It references the Igbo Maiden Spirit Mask, traditionally worn by male dancers to portray ideals of feminine beauty, grace, and wealth.
She now knows the mirror as threshold.
She now knows she must negotiate for self and society.
