Masque rituel
Vouci / Tshogho - GABON
Comme chez leurs voisins les Mitsogho, peu d'informations sur les Vuvi et leurs masques...

Ils semblent tous avoir un lien particulier avec l'esprit  (Moghondzi) qu'il incarnent et portent chacun un nom particulier.

Lors de leurs apparitions nocturnes, ils sont accompagnés par les battements du tambour pendant que le meneur entonne un chant rappelant les traits dominants des esprits incarnés.
