Keaka Statue (N° 25546)

African authorship expressionist style. The legs in flexion, the protruding bust extended by the arms emphasizing the concave bust, contribute to the energy expressed by the face. This type of statue was used during funeral, initiation or even therapeutic rites. Thick brown cracked patina. Cracks and erosions.

The Kaka, or Keaka, ethnic group, so named by the German settlers, is located in a border area between Nigeria and Cameroon. Their statuary demonstrates a certain influence from other ethnic groups such as the Mumuye whose statues also present short, bent legs topped by a slender body. Their very thick and crusty patina, their wide feet and their wide open mouth are, however, typical features allowing them to be distinguished from neighboring ethnic groups.
