Curious sculpture from a dogon village in mali presenting 9 characters enshrined with mystery in a wooden spar with pointed ends carved from fine and light wood. There are 9 mysterious figures that have been inlaid or carved onto a block because they cannot be removed from the top or bottom. Curious shape, the characters seem to look at the sky, it's strange, original and beautiful. It belonged to a private collection from the 1960s like the rest published. Unique piece. Measurements: 46x14x2cm dogon art mainly consists of sculpture. His motivations revolve around religious values, ideals and freedoms. Dogon sculptures are not made for public display and are generally kept in homes, shrines or kept with the hogon. The importance of secrecy is due to the symbolic meaning behind the pieces and the process by which they are made. Presumably, the very history of the dogon people as a group resisting aggressive expansionist monotheisms is linked to this refusal to exhibit their art, that is, their worldview.
