The Mama Aisa showpiece was created by artist Boris van Berkum, commissioned by Winti priestess Marian Markelo, Nana Efua. Upon the recommendation of her ancestors, Marian Markelo gave Boris the commission to develop a new Winti art collection, to revive the African sculptural tradition in Winti culture and manifest the Winti culture in the (art-)world. The depiction of Mama Aisa is considered one of the highlights of this Winti art collection.
The design for the Mama Aisa showpiece is an assemblage of three 3D scans and three fabric expressions. Marian Markelo herself posed while being 3D scanned. Additionally, 3D scans of art objects from the collection of the Wereldmuseum were integrated into the design.
