Yam mask collected in the village of Maprik in Papua New Guinea. Yam masks are used to disguise the most beautiful yams selected at harvest time. This wickerwork mask represents the head of the yam, a very symbolic way of proving that these sacred tubers do indeed have a soul... Braided rush and remnants of pigments. Traces of use. Sold with a presentation base. Free shipping. Approx. 40 x 34 cm / €290 base and shipping included.
