The art collection dedicated to congos and diablicos reflects the cultural richness of Panama, with over 100 works portraying these festive and ancestral expressions. This theme is fundamental in Panamanian folk art, where vivid colors, costumes, and theatricality represent resistance, Afro-descendant identity, and historical struggles.
These works convey a vibrant and symbolic energy, exploring themes such as freedom, social satire, connection to the land, and the legacy of slavery. The characters, with their expressive masks and ritual movements, embody both celebration and historical memory.
