African masks in a Manhattan entrance hall displaying interesting juxtaposition between old and new.
Here is my small living room wall. I found my masks at flea markets. I love the primitive expressions of each mask, each have a different story behind them. I think displaying my collections in groups make them look more unified.
The ceremonial masks are from the Ivory Coast.
Dogon mask was the first mask I seriously started with my African mask collection. When I found it at a flea market, it was ugly and beated up, horns were broken and I fell in love with it right then.
This gorgeous Dan mask was one of my husband's finds. It has a special place in my collection.
The African Nafana Bedu mask makes a strong abstract statement on the wall in the dinning room.
