The patterns encode identity, clan, fertility and spiritual protection. Each season after the rains, women repaint the walls together in a communal act that is architecture, art and ritual simultaneously.<\/p>\r\n <p>In the capital <strong>Ouagadougou<\/strong>, Burkina Faso's creative scene punches far above its weight \u2014 home to FESPACO, the continent's most prestigious film festival, and SIAO, the biennial Pan-African craft fair that draws artisans from 40 nations.<\/p>\r\n <p>Every Asina Tour itinerary is built around <strong>Spanish-speaking Burkinab\u00e9 guides<\/strong> \u2014 architects, artists and cultural historians who read the walls,
