Dimitri André

Masque multi faces Lega / Nziba sont attachés aux rites Kindi.
Ils étaient suspendus à un présentoir nommé Pala, d'où le fil qui reste sur la face arrière.

Les Léga sont les inventeurs du masque insigne non porté, initié par la société du Bwami. Ces masques symbolisent la continuité qui lie le monde des vivants à celui des morts.

La barbe Luzelu que l'on retrouve sur de nombreux masques d'ethnies très proches est tirée d'une liane appelée Lukusa.

Ici un  masque en bois dur, ancien yeux multiples symbolisant le monde des morts et celui des vivants.
