Kusu Statue
This Kusu statue, with its expressive and symbolic style, is characterized by the absence of legs, a mouth with half-open lips, and almond-shaped eyes that give it an intense presence. These sculptural peculiarities probably reflect a ritual or divinatory function, where the absence of legs may suggest a purely spiritual presence, detached from the earthly world. The open mouth evokes the voice of ancestors or spirits, while the stylized eyes reinforce the visionary aspect of the figure. This work with its deep patina embodies a power of mediation and memory, central to Kusu religious practices.
