Vuvi Mask
This Vuvi mask impresses with its expressive style and graphic power. Carved entirely from wood, it features an open mouth revealing a row of pointed teeth, emphasizing a powerful expressiveness. The half-closed eyes and triangular nose give this face an intense spiritual presence.
The strongly marked brow ridges accentuate the depth of the gaze. Worn during rituals, this mask symbolized protection against invisible forces and accompanied important passages in community life. A magnificent example of Central African sculptural art.
