Mubimba Woman illustrates how my subconscious interprets the historical evolution of women from southern Angola after independence to the present day. The featured fabrics are called Pimdale and samakaka, Pimdale is a fabric that represents the people of Huambo, southern Angola (where I honour the women of my family); Samakaka is a fabric that symbolizes the harmony between all the tribes that are located in the national territory, thus giving rise to the Angolan nation. The braids and beads symbolise the beauty and wealth of the women of southern Angola; the Southerner women show off their hair with great pride, where the Mubimba women (a tribe located in the south of Angola) moisturise their hair with goat faeces to strengthen the strands of their hair and lavish purity. Before colonial times, beads were the currency between tribes; in more modern days, beads symbolise the economic power of each family between tribes; Mudimba women carry beads in their hair and clothes to exude the wealth of their husbands and relatives to society.
