Kuba textiles from the Kuba kingdom (current day Democratic Republic of Congo) are among the most distinctive works of African art. These fabrics are made from the leaf of the raffia tree- they are first hand cut and then strips of leaf are woven to make pieces of fabric, often called raffia cloth. Highly prized for their complex patterns, they influenced artists such as Picasso and Matisse!
