MASQUE AGBOGHO MMUO - IGBO / IBO - NIGERIA
Certainement l'un des plus connus des masques Igbo, celui de l'esprit d'une jeune fille défunte.

Ce masque idéalise la beauté féminine et met en scène les parures liées autrefois aux cérémonies de mariage Nkpu.

Ils sont généralement exécutés pour la société Mwo (Fantôme), la face est blanche, couleur de la mort.

La société Mwo exerce son influence sur les Ibo du Nord, au nom des esprits gardiens ancestraux.
