Bwa Soleil mask from Burkina Faso

Very large sun mask from the bobo ethnic group, in the northeast of burkina faso. Although called “solar”, this mask would rather represent an owl or an owl. According to the bobo, its function is to reinstate the balance given by god between the sun, the earth and the rain. Protective mask for the family. Round, this bwa mask is decorated with two-tone triangular geometric engravings and patterns. Very positive with good vibes, it brings a touch of contemporary ethnic originality!.
