The Lega live in the centre and in the south of the former province of Kivu, in D.R.C. Their spiritual and social lives are ruled by the Bwami, a strongly hierarchical secret society. All the Lega artworks were crafted for one purpose only, to serve as supports for the teaching and practice of the rites of the Bwami society. Wooden masks play an important role. They are used as emblems and symbols of accession to a rank in the Bwami society. Both intriguing and fascinating, this mask with three faces gathers all the artistic specificities developed by the Lega ethnic group, to which it belongs. The multiple faces with thin features and little eyes, symbolise the gift of long sight. Origin: Lega ethnic group / Democratic Republic of Congo. Read more
