Buli style (sh) and thundercloud (medicine)


Buli style (sh)




African wood sculpture made by the Luba people in the village of Buli, Congo (Zaire).

The most typical examples are statues of ancestor figures and stools with seats supported on the heads and fingertips of figures. Because the carvings are almost identical and differ from Other Luba carvings, they were once thought to be the work of a single artist, known as the Master of Buli, but it was later determined that they were actually produced in a workshop.


thundercloud (medicine)


thundercloud


A cloud charged with electricity, and producing lightning and thunder.
