Original artwork description:

In the ancestral heart of Africa, masks were not mere decorations, they were sacred vessels, holding spirit, story, and soul."

"Echoes of Ancestry" is a modern reinterpretation of the traditional African mask, handcrafted using 3/4 inch purebond plywood wood strips and adorned with aluminum sheet accents. Finished with rich satin enamel paint, this striking wall sculpture blends organic texture with contemporary edge, inviting the viewer into a deeper dialogue with identity and truth.

Rooted in African tradition yet boldly present, this piece reminds us that while masks of the past were carved from wood, today’s are shaped by behavior, performance, and the fear of vulnerability. A smile may conceal betrayal. Confidence may cloak fear. Beauty might hide harm.

This artwork speaks to the soul’s desire to be seen, to live unmasked:

●To see beyond illusion
● To feel what’s hidden
● To walk in truth, not disguise

Because no mask, no matter how perfect, can silence the truth forever.

Unmask. Awaken. Evolve.
