About the Item

This work is a symbolic image of the feminine principle - a quiet element capable of giving birth, protecting and filling space with peace, life and harmony. Archetype - the image of a woman as part of nature, the earth, the continuous cycle of life. The naked body here is not about vulnerability or corporeality in the literal sense. It is about naturalness, honesty, original integrity. The open pose and outstretched arms are about interaction and balance with the surrounding space. The painting speaks of a woman, not as a role, but as a living source of life, of soft but invincible strength. Female figures for me are an endless kaleidoscope of images that can convey very diverse states and emotions. In Trypillian culture, a woman probably had a very important meaning. Archaeological finds give reason to believe that the feminine principle was one of the central images of their worldview. Archaeologists find a lot of female figurines, the so-called “paleovenus”, or Beregin figures. They often have emphasized hips, stomach, breasts - that is, symbols of birth, life and fertility. A woman is a connection with the earth, nature, body, spiritual memory, the Universe. I am interested in studying myself as a woman - as a manifestation of nature and the very essence of life. Feminine nature has been sacred since ancient times, its understanding for me is relevant in modern experience and reinterpreted. The somewhat lost meanings and value of the feminine principle are a problem in the patriarchal structure of modern society, where aggression and force dominate. Through my paintings I unpack my codes, give the opportunity to manifest those feminine natural foundations that exist in me as a memory from the beginning of humanity.

Julius was encouraged by a Finnish radiology specialist who supplied him with material and purchased his works. She also organized his first exhibition in Finland in 1983. The first works of Njau are very representative, inspired by the nature and the traditional aspects of his country. In 1984 his technique changed and his style transformed. Julius Njau paintings are characterised by the interaction of primary colors and the mixture of forms.

They are also in the Frankfurt Museum of Ethnology (fur Volkerkunde), in the ZAK Gallery (Zeitgenossische afrikanische Kunst), Furth in Germany, in the Amos Anderson Helsinki Gallery, Finland, and in the 5th British Museum in England.
