African Art - Souvenir from Mali - The Sitting Man

Every time I see this statue, I'm asking my self; "what is that man doing, is he just relaxing after a hard working day, or is he just sitting there looking at the desert, waiting for destiney to make things change" Personally I suppose I can feel bored if I was at such situation, but I can understand that sometimes we don't have the choice of motion and making things feel better and better.
