AFRICA X BRAZIL

Here in brazil my home country the carnval is going on! FUN FUN FUN, but not for me cause college work is making me mad!!! During one of my lessons which i was paying attention a presentation was going on about, Candomblé. 
I got very interested cause i knew about it but never researced about it! So baisically its a religion but the clothes are AMAZING. worth posting about!!
Every piece has a meaning, there conected with the spirtual life and nature, there for having gods for every element!


Here are some photos to give u just a lil taste!

Some parts of brazil, they only wear white, like in Bahia

Also very colorful. beautiful!!

I didnt draw these wish i had!

Not only are brasilian and african people involved so are loads of people from around the world who adopt this religion. but i must say once u enter its hard to leave it!

Want to learn more???
