About "seaweed farmers"

by Willeke van Vulpen

About the artwork

At low tide, residents of Jambiani ( Zanzibar ) grow seaweed. The women attach the seaweed to threads attached between sticks. This is early in the morning when it is low tide. With bales of seaweed on their heads, the women farmers go home.

Zanzibar's history has been influenced by Persians, Arabs, Muslims, the Portuguese, and inhabitants of mainland Africa. Stone Town, the historic city centre of the capital Zanzibar, is a district with winding avenues, round towers, carved doors, terraces and beautiful mosques. Architectural gems include the Livingstone House, the Guliani Bridge and the House of Wonders: a palace built in 1883 under Sultan Barghash.
Zanzibar is the world's third-largest producer of cloves (7%), but was once the world's largest producer.[1] Furthermore, Zanzibar exports spices, seaweed and raffia, and has a large fish and log canoe production.

Alongside this, tourism is also a major source of income. The island is also known for its diving spots in and around the coral reefs on Zanzibar's north and east coasts. Kite surfing is also on the rise, often to the dismay of fishermen and villagers.
