African Tribal Art BOBO MASK, BURKINA FASO-Mask Wooden Carved Mask-43/15.8 CM
Christopher Roy notes, "Among wooden African Tribal Art Mask [of the Bobo] the most important types are sacred African Tribal Art Mask molo and nwenke, escort African Tribal Art Mask nyaga, and entertainment African Tribal Art Mask bole. The sacred African Tribal Art Mask are representative, rather than representational African Tribal Art Mask , and do not represent any living, tangible being, human or animal. As a result, these African Tribal Art Mask are abstract and stylized. A African Tribal Art Mask with human features may have added to it forward-curving antelope horns and a great bird's beak because it represents a character of Dwo that does not take human or animal form. Similarly, animal shapes do not mean the African Tribal Art Mask represents an animal, but recall the spirit of an animal which saved the founding ancestor of the clan. Allegorical and nonrepresentational, the African Tribal Art Mask incarnate the spirit of Dwo, the son of Wuro." (Art of the Upper Volta Rivers, Alain and Francoise
