'Kete' from Mask Series
Limited Edition Print from Mask Series by Jay Sharpe
*Sold individually- Limited sizes available
Part of Jay Sharpe's celebrated Mask Series, this limited edition fine art print draws inspiration from the ceremonial masks of the Chokwe people of Angola, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Zambia. These powerful cultural symbols have long been used to honor ancestors, celebrate fertility, and pass down community values through initiation ceremonies and storytelling traditions.
Within Kete culture, masks were used during community ceremonies and social or initiatory rituals, serving as mediators between the visible world and invisible forces. Blending historical inspiration with contemporary artistic expression, this print invites viewers to explore the enduring stories, values, and cultural significance embodied within these ceremonial forms.
