"Girl on Globe 2" (2011) by Yinka Shonibare CBE, is a mixed media sculpture that depicts a headless female mannequin balancing on a globe. Dressed in colorful fabric patterns inspired by traditional African textiles, the figure appears to be both grounded and precariously poised. The globe, painted in hues of orange and red, symbolizes the interconnectedness of the world. This piece is a characteristic example of Shonibare’s work, which often explores themes of colonialism, globalization, and identity.
