The "Makonde Sculpture Bust Exhibition" will feature a number of wood-carved busts full of life. Makonde sculptures reflect their myths, traditions and daily life, and exude the scent of the earth and simple strength of the people who have lived in the great outdoors. Each piece is imbued with rich culture and stories, and its meticulous technique and expressiveness are very fascinating.
These works are more than mere portraits; they are busts that reflect the sculptor's emotions with minute detail. The texture of the African black wood and the skillful carving allow the figures' expressions and postures to be reproduced with astonishing realism.
Take this opportunity to experience the rich worldview created by Makonde sculptures.
