Táncos maszk - Lwalwa - Kongói Demokratikus Köztársaság (Nincs minimálár)
Lwalwa masks are stylized using simple geometric forms to represent the features of the face.
Lwalwa masks are carved from a wood called ‘mulela’ and colored with a dye from the fruit of the ‘mukula’ tree, also called the ‘bloodwood’ or ‘sealing wax’ tree. Lwalwa sculptors are privileged members of the tribe and are highly paid for their craft. Their skills are often passed down from father to son.
The Lwalwa are famous for their dancing and masks play an important part in their celebrations, particularly the secret rituals of the ‘bangongo’ society who were responsible for the initiation of young men into adulthood.
Condition: good, with old traces of use.
