KI-gestützte Zusammenfassung
Vom Verkäufer bereitgestellte Beschreibung
Zweier-Set der Maske Junge Frau Muana Mpo (Angola)
Among the Chokwe peoples, masked dancers perform in villages during the initiation period, when newly circumcised boys are secluded for instruction in the initiation lodges. The name of this mask means "young woman." It represents a female ancestor who died at a young age, and thus is a reminder of the theme of death which is part of the initiation experience of death and rebirth.
The shape of the face is that of a deceased person, with sunken eye sockets and gaunt face. The "tears" carved under the eyes express the painful experience of loss through death. Pwo also idealizes feminine values; the dancer performs gracefully, and teaches good manners to the spectators. The power and elegance of the dancer's performance is supposed to bring fertility to the women of the village. The mask's filed teeth and decorative scarifications reproduce the appearance of initiated young women.
Environ 25 - 30cm de hauteur.
