Moko Jumbies painted metal art from Haiti is a powerful blend of cultural heritage, environmental sustainability, and ethical craftsmanship. These striking sculptures represent the Moko Jumbie—a spirit figure rooted in West African folklore and Caribbean tradition, often seen as a guardian or protector. In Haitian culture, the Moko Jumbie is a symbol of resilience, balance, and spiritual awareness, believed to ward off evil and protect communities. Each piece is handcrafted by skilled Haitian artisans using recycled oil drums, a hallmark of Haiti’s vibrant metal art tradition. The process begins by cutting and flattening the drums, then intricately shaping, hammering, and embossing them into the elongated forms of stilt-walking Moko Jumbies.
