In the Kwele cultures of Central Africa, certain sculpted forms were associated with representations related to harmony and balance within the community.
This carved wooden mask, characterized by pure forms, balanced volumes, and a serene expression, echoes these formal codes.
The sobriety of the lines and the softness of the surfaces reflect a search for visual balance, in a contemporary interpretation of these forms.
