Traditional African Art:
Forms and Media: Masks, sculptures, textiles, beadwork, and pottery are common forms.
Purposes: Traditionally, African art is functional and used for religious, social, and political purposes rather than purely aesthetic. Masks, for instance, are often used in ceremonies to represent spirits, ancestors, or deities.
Symbolism: Many works carry symbolic meanings, such as masks representing powerful spiritual beings or ancestral connections. Sculptures often depict gods, ancestral figures, or animals, emphasizing the importance of the unseen, spiritual world.
