Item Details

Description

Beautiful Large Grade Sculpture With Hornbill Sepik

Origin: Papua New Guinea

Date: 1970's

Materials: Wood

Size: 72 cm

Large grade sculpture of a female from the Sepik region of Papua New Guinea with mystical symbolic meaning. This figure was kept in the mens spirit house (called Haus Tambaran or Gaigo). It works as a magical shield together with other figures in the Gaigo, generally protecting from bad magic worked against the village by marauding demons (Maselei) or magic generated by enemy sorcerers (Sanguma). The story from where some of these characters are drawn often refers to secret tales only known by the tribal elders. The figure was hand carved out of heavy wood. The figure carries a large hornbill on the back. Please look at all the beautiful details.
