Luba Hemba Singhiti Central African Ancestor Carving

Every way you view this sculpture reveals a fresh silhouette from the skilled artist. I like this and have kept it in my personal collection for several years because the elongated body reminds me of Mannerist artwork in Spain and in Italy. The carving detaches from the base.

You can install this work in a 360 display area and as you walk the circle you will see something different. from each angle. Stunning. Worthy of museum display.
