This unique mask blends the bold geometric abstraction characteristic of tribal oceanic art with the intricate spiritual symbolism of Papua New Guinea ceremonial carvings. Hand-carved from a single piece of wood, the mask features an elongated oval form, with textured surface patterns, and organic adornments made from woven plant fibers.
The muted tones of grey, brown, and ochre highlight the sculptural depth of the design, while the expressive contours suggest its ritual inspiration.
