The Story
Distinguished by tall horns, this mask is inspired by the artistic customs of northern Ghana. In most communities, horns on a headdress denote power. Victor Addo Biney hand-carves the mask from sese wood and decorates it with elaborate details embossed in aluminum and painted with watercolors. Finally, the mask is treated with clay to achieve an aged finish.
