About this item: A frightening face by Walter Kuma represents a force more powerful than evil. With its glaring eyes and halo of embossed spikes, the mask is used in Ewe ceremonies to exorcise harmful influences. Among this tribe from Ghana's Volta region, rituals are performed by a masked priest to drive off evil spirits. About our Artist: Ghana's Walter Kuma says, 'I have my own workshop, where I design and carve the things I like. I carve different masks that represent the value of the family, unity and our ancestors. African masks have a strong social, ethnic, historic and symbolic meaning.'
