Shaman’s mask

Villa Caleta, Darien Province, Panama

11 inches, wood

Made by Porfirio Lino of the Embera Indians, a culture living along the Tuquesa River. It has been carved quite thin out of light-weight wood. The style and character of this strange face is absolutely unique. I’ve never seen anything like it!
