This splendid circular mask was danced to celebrate the farming season. It represents the sun, necessary with rain and the earth for growth. The strongly abstracted patterning shows the influence of Islamic teaching over the centuries.
The highly abstracted and geometric forms of the Bwa and Bobo played an important inspirational role in the development of Western art movements of the early 20th century. 
46 centimeters in  hight, weight 2 kilogram.
