Oval Bamileke Shield Dark Ends . Vinage Leaque, Wall Decor

This is a wonderful stylized carved wood sun mask from Burkina Faso. Sun Masks are contemporary pieces that marry the stylistic features of the Bwa and Bobo. Appearing during agricultural and harvest festivals, they honor the sun and its power to yield a healthy crop. The checkerboard light and dark geometric patterns are understood and interpreted in increasingly complex ways, depending on the observer. The use of light and dark pigments represents the dichotomy of innocence and knowledge. The figures represent the people of the community. This is a very expressive mask and would be a wonderful addition to your collection.
