Twins - Yoruba - Nigeria

Expert

Selected by Julien Gauthier

Otro Ibedji solitario; a destacar la elaboración del peinado en varios moños, las escarificaciones en las mejilla, y muy especialmente el tallado de la cuentas del collar en la cintura, que han sido talladas en diagonales opuestas para obtener el aspecto de escamas de serpiente. Este autor tuvo la ocasión de ver en directo el tallado a mano de estos "trade beads" con piedras de amolar a través de un ingenioso mecanismo activado con los pies, y como sujeción para las perlas de vidrio, simplemente los dedos, increíble..! Altura: 26 cm.
