    A statue depicting a standing female figure, with her arms at her sides and her hands resting on either side of her navel. Her legs are slightly bent, firmly planted on the ground. Her navel and genitals are prominent. Her torso and head are tilted backward and facing upward. Her gaze is fixed; her mouth is slightly parted, revealing her teeth. Her overall demeanor conveys a sense of power and determination. This figure connects the earth to the sky, the visible to the invisible. Keaka people, Cameroon; first half of the 20th century
