Mwana Pwo mask - Chokwe - DR Congo
Chokwe men wear this mask in dances performed during the mukanda initiation ceremonies for young boys.
The mask depicts an idealized beautiful woman—a female ancestor believed to be spiritually present throughout the initiation rituals.
Her beauty is emphasized by the scarification patterns on her face and her stylized headdress.
Representing an older, mature woman, the mask reflects a beauty shaped by wisdom, accomplishment, and skill rather than youth alone.
