Anthropomorphic face mask "mfon ekpo" - Nigeria, Ibibio-Anang

Item Details

Description

wood, base

Appearances by the "ekpo" masks are regarded as visits by the ancestral spirits ("ekpo") represented by the masks.

This mask shows a realistic depiction of a beautiful female face. It is the embodiment of a "beautiful spirit" - "mfon", which is primarily used for entertainment.

"Ekpo" masks show a contrastive aesthetic of beauty and ugliness. Artists use asymmetry and disproportion in their mask-making to recreate and comment upon the incongruities and contradictions of human existance, while symmetry and elegance convey ideas about morality and essential goodness.
