Inspired by the Fang Fang Reliquary Head that sold for a record €12.6 million at Christie’s Tribal Art Auction, this work draws from one of the most powerful sculptural traditions in African art history.
The Fang people of Central Africa created reliquary heads and figures to guard the bones of revered ancestors. These objects were not decorative. They were spiritual sentinels, believed to house authority, continuity, and protection for the living. Their presence affirmed lineage, memory, and power across generations.
