Vuvi Mask - Gabon

In Gabon's Vuvi cultures, certain sculpted forms were associated with representations related to presence and balance within the community.

This carved wooden mask, characterized by elongated forms, a contemplative expression, and a natural patina, reflects these formal codes.

The simplicity of the lines and the balance of volumes convey a quest for visual harmony, in a contemporary interpretation of these forms.
