Dimitri André

Fraai masker van de Chokwe volksstam in Congo/Angola, onderdeel van de Bantoe volken.
Het masker, een Mwana Pwo, (Mwana betekent Dans) en heet Makishi. 
Het wordt gedragen bij de Makishi dans, een dorpsceremonie bij het einde van de initiatieperiode van de jongens. Makishi symboliseert de geest van een overleden voorouder die de jongens zal assisteren in hun volwassenheid.
Het houten masker is ca 35 x 24 cm, omgeven met "haren" uit Bamboe staafjes, ca 12 - 15 cm lang.
