African Mask - Wood - Luba - Baluba - Congo DRC
Luba masks are very similar to the Songye’s Kifwebé female masks but rounder. These male masks also have the frontal edge ending at the nose but this is finer in these than in the latter. They have the same type of fluting.
There is very little variety of Luba masks. Male mask with the nasal edge staring from the centre of the head. Luba masks are linked to healing rituals.
It’s always a beneficent mask and its dances are aimed to excite the protecting spirits.
