Description

wood, red colour, black mass, human hair, crack

The making and performance of the “mapiko” helmet masks play a significant role in the social and religious life of the Makonde.

According to Fenzl, the mask dancer could represent a deceased but also a living person.

The masks are characterised by a strikingly realistic style of representation.
