Fire Walker African Wood Mask

Theophilus Sackey

Carved by hand, this elegant mask represents imperishability and endurance. An African adinkra symbol on the forehead represents hye wonhye, meaning "that which does not burn." "This symbol gets its meaning from traditional priests who were able to walk on fire without burning their feet, an inspiration to others to endure and overcome difficulties," artisan Theophilus Sackey confides. He covers the features with hand-embossed aluminum.

Two beautiful masks

I was unprepared for how beautiful these masks are (Be Patient and Kokobene Luck). They were purchased to hang on a wall in the main living area and they bring a sense of joy to the space. They help tie together other high quality African art that is scattered around a very open area.
