Chokwe Mask

Chokwe, Tchokwe mask from Angola

The Chokwe people influenced the art of many neighboring peoples, including the Mbunda, Lovale and Mbangani tribes. The most powerful and important Chokwe mask is known as Chikunga. Highly charged with power and considered sacred, chikunga is used during investiture ceremonies of a chief and sacrifices to the ancestors.

Chikunga masks are made of bark cloth stretched over armature of wickerwork, covered over with black resin and painted with red and white designs. Only the current chief of a group wears chikunga - to read more click here.
