Superb LG Vtg Bwa Plank Mask Burkina Faso. These masks are believed to possess special powers which are controlled by those who wear them. Plank shaped w/ a circular face at one end and a crescent moon at the other. The eyes are based on an owl and the hooked nose comes from the hornbill. Both these birds are thought to possess magical powers. The plank section is decorated with geometric patterns that creates an external rhythm which echoes the internal spiritual energy of the artwork.
