This class will be aimed at creating power figures using wood, found objects, nails, rusted screws and pieces of metal, and other interesting materials. Each power figure will be an intimate and personal representation of the power aimed at protecting and empowering each student in their daily life. We will take our inspiration from a fascinating power figure called minkisi (from the Republic of Congo) which are wooden figures representing a human carved under the divine authority of a spiritual specialist who activates these figures through chants, prayers, and the preparation of sacred substances which are aimed at ‘curing’ physical, social or spiritual ailments.

All materials will be furnished; however, students are encouraged to bring personal items that are meaningful to them and can be used to give strength and endurance to their power figures along with creative interest and beauty.
