Julien Gauthier

Les figures des Kongo sont parmi les plus reconnaissables et emblématiques de l'art africain, et qui ont inspiré les collectionneurs depuis de nombreuses années. L'insertion de substances sacrées dans la cavité de l'estomac par des spécialistes du rituel active efficacement la statue pour qu'elle agisse au nom du donneur. Des personnalités plus petites, comme celle-ci, agissent au nom d'un individu. Les actions de la figure de Nkisi peuvent varier en fonction des demandes de la personne qui a commandé une telle pièce, bien que souvent ce soit pour la recherche d'une personne ou d'une force spirituelle qui aurait causé le malheur à l'individu
