When Europeans first came to Africa, they considered the architecture very disorganized and thus primitive. It never occurred to them that the Africans might have been using a form of mathematics that they hadn't even discovered yet.

Als die Europäer zum ersten Mal nach Afrika kamen, betrachteten sie die Architektur als sehr unstrukturiert und damit primitiv. Ihnen war nie der Gedanke gekommen, dass die Afrikaner eine Form der Mathematik verwendet hätten, die sie noch nicht einmal entdeckt hatten.

I'm not a prophet; I can only use historical reality to come to a view of the future, and my view is that Africa will return to being African and not European. The advent of colonialism was foreign to the country itself, but it will return to what it was before the Europeans arrived.

I think that every artist dreams of renewing the forms which came before, but I think very few can be considered to have achieved that. We are all dwarves standing upon the shoulders of the giants who preceded us, and I think we must never forget that. After all, even iconoclasts only exist with respect to that which they destroy.
