About the Item
Eccentric African mask and unique piece created by artist Bomber Bax. Rare and unique piece made by the artist. The mask dates back to the early 1900s and was processed and painted in late 2022 by the artist.
The artist used special, metallic paints intended to evoke a lunar effect and draw attention to a futuristic, Martian landscape. In addition to the wonderful paints, the mask has shapes typical from the workings of African tribes. Note to note are the shape of the hollowed out eyes, which in African symbolism, denotes looking into the afterlife after death. The mask is made with a double varnish. The first layer is painted with a metallic silver metallic paint, while the lines and lips are in fiery red paint.
The mask is the perfect complement to eccentric living rooms where art and eccentric tribal-style decor take center stage.

Angola Chokwe Mask Revisited by Bomber Bax

Kuba Mask African Bwoom Tribal Congo in Wood, Vibrates Vegetables, Animal Hair
Located in Milano, IT
The African Kuba Bwoom tribal mask is the oldest known mask, the Kuba bwoom mask. The materials used for the realization of the Mask are: Wood, colors and vibrates plants, caures, beads, animal hair. In dance it expresses exuberance and joy. The style is similar to that of the middle Kasai. This mask is a helmet with animal hair, carved with a very wide forehead and hollow cheeks that are announced by motifs or dashes and beads. The mouth of the mask is very pronounced carved in wood and then applied on the mask. To distinguish the forehead in different areas are used black and white beads to draw attention to other aspects of the face such as the nose and chin. The entire edge of the chin is surrounded by beads of various colors. The person wearing the mask cannot look because there are no holes for the eyes present; the mask must create the feeling of being blind. Some masks similar to the bwoom mask include the funny mask, the ram mask and initiation masks such as Nnup.
