According to Luluwa beliefs, the figure of the chief is inhabited by the spirits of ancestors. It protects the village and individual households. It enhances the authority of the ruling chief, who is responsible for the continuity of tribal traditions and connection with the beliefs of previous generations.

He is a muscular, stocky man standing on bent legs (as if ready to jump). His head is adorned with a powerful hairstyle, a kind of royal crown.

And although, like steampunk, it uses elements of existing material reality, it is closer to constructivism or futurism, which assume a connection between man and machine, rejecting the relics of the past, rejecting decorativeness, and subordinating art to human needs.
