MAMI WATA MASK. Yoruba people, western Nigeria near the Benin border. The female face has puffed out cheeks decorated with scarifications, and bulging eyes. A cloth band with a floral design tied in a bow surrounds her hair. The hair is braided and drawn over her forehead where it is held by a tie. A serpent encircles her face ending in a head with a gaping, tooth-lined mouth below her chin. The pupils of the woman?s eyes and the eyes of the serpent are flashlight bulbs. Mami Wata is a water spirit related to snakes. This mask was worn on top of the head, slightly pitched downward. It was probably placed on a cloth pad that contained substances which attracted the insects that damaged the interior. Wood, paint, flashlight bulbs. H 9in. Published in Rosen/Rosen 2013 p 134.
