Description
Punu style mask
Gabon
Wood, white pigments (kaolin)
Second half of the 20th century
This female mask, inspired by the Punu style, features a face with idealised features, covered in white kaolin, a symbol of beauty and purity. This modern work bears witness to the persistence and spread of Punu forms, reinterpreted for a more recent context, while retaining their visual power.
H: 24 cm - W: 16 cm
Provenance: Former French private collection.
