Africa is a large continent tribal masks developed along different lines; tribal masks mean different things to different tribes, and served different purposes.
Some tribes were may have been close to each other, so there would be some sort of similarity between the ritual usage and even look of the mask; other tribes were possibly hundreds or thousands of kilometers apart, so they have no apparent relationship to each other.
They were used in story telling, ritual, initiations, war dances, weddings and funerals.
Generally speaking:
African masks symbolize the spirit of the African ancestors.
African masks were also used to show that they belonged to a certain tribe.
African masks can ward/ scare of other tribes and they are also used in tribal festivals/ dances.

Kenneth Clark viewed the African mask as a profound symbol of artistic expression and cultural significance. He believed it transcended mere decoration, embodying deep spiritual and communal values within African societies. For Clark, the mask represented a bridge between Western and non-Western art, challenging conventional notions of aesthetics and prompting a reevaluation of the importance of non-Western cultures in the art world. Its influence on modern art further highlighted the interconnectedness of global artistic traditions.
