Figur (no reserve price)
Yaka, DR Kongo
Gesockelt (base included)
Holz, div. Fetischmaterial. H 20 cm.

Provenienz:
Nachlass Kurt Hösli-Brutschin (1928-2006), Basel.

Persönliche Schutzfigur, die durch Rituale und die Anbringung magischer Substanzen ihre Kraft entfalten konnte.

Diese materialisierte Schnittstelle zwischen diesseitigen und übernatürlichen Kräften wurde eingesetzt, um das Gute zu fördern und das Negative abzuwenden.

Ihre Fähigkeit, bestimmte Aufträge zu erfüllen, verstärkten die Besitzer durch die organischen Substanzen, die im Beutel mit der Figur eingepackt sind.
