HOLO
MASK 4
19" high
Wood, paint and raffia
$400

Despite its traditional form and appearance, this mask shows no signs of age or use and was probably made to be sold.

The Holo are a small neighboring group whose masks relate to those of the Yaka except they are usually smaller and lack the often complex structures on top of most Yaka masks. This mask is all wood (and raffia).
