Yela mask - DRc ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Item Details

Description

Title: Yela mask - DRc ex Zaire - African Art Tribal Art

Date/Period: Second half XX°

Origin: DRC ex Zaire

Dimension: 13,39 Inch

Materials: wood

Weight: 1,76 Pounds

Item type: masks

Provenance: The province of Lualaba had several close ethnic groups with similar associations. The Mbole and Yela are known for their statues, according to D. Biebuck, of the hanged, named ofika . The lilwa , an association with dogmatic initiation rites, had the custom of judging and sentencing those guilty of violations of the imposed rules to hang. These offences ranged from murder to adultery to breaking the secrecy surrounding the lilwa . Disgraced, the bodies of condemned men had no funerals and were buried in the forest. It was during the end-of-initiation ceremonies, presided over by a notable isoya , that these statues, presented lying on a litter box, were displayed. In addition to these figures, the Yela sculpt effigies of ancestors. The Yela worship spirits of nature and ancestors.

Additional Information: Stand not included. A universal or custom base can be ordered separately.
