Wild Life Protector
MASK OF THE GREAT PROTECTOR OF WILD LIFE
Based on an illustration from INDABA MY CHILDREN African tribal history, legends, customs and religious beliefs
by Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa. (4). Of note in this mask is the direct identification of style to purpose by way of the
dominant horned head dress.
The head band has a bold geometric ethnic pattern common to much African design.
Some open mouth masks denote aggression (2) so may it be supposed that this Being is demanding to be heard?.
