Lobi – Stylized wooden figure – Kampti, Burkina Faso – 23 cm A distinctive wooden sculpture, originating from the Lobi culture in the Kampti region of southern Burkina Faso.

The arms are firmly along the body and the figure rests on two characteristic block-shaped feet. The geometric design gives the piece a powerful, almost modernist, appearance. The wood has a dark, locally glossy patina, with lighter areas of wear that accentuate the contours of the carving.
