Dimitri André

Statue - Bambara - Jonyeléni - Bois - Mali - 80 cm.

Parmi le corpus d’objets liés aux cultes du Jo, les statues féminines Jonyeleni (petite Nyele du Jo) comme celle-ci sont incontournables. 
Elles représentent la matérialisation de l’âme de l’entité féminine à l’origine de la création.
Cette grande statue de 80 cm à la plastique schématique et sensuelle présente toutes les caractéristiques de l’art Bamana.
 Le visage est d’une grande expressivité, 
Les seins, coniques, semblent jaillir d’une large poitrine, les oreilles en demi-cercle sont pourvus de multiples anneaux. 
Une ceinture de petites perles ainsi qu'un collier de cauris mettent en valeur ce corps élancé.
La présence de motifs géométriques représentant des scarifications sur l’ensemble du corps ainsi que la très belle patine d’ancienneté témoignent de la qualité de la pièce..
Elle est en très bon état.
