This is a piece I started around the beginning of the new year, and just recently finished up. Its a mask inspired by the work of the Gogodala People, Western Province of the South Coast of New Guinea. It features open work in the eyes and mouth and is hand painted. Very similar colors to that which the Abelam People use, which is what attracted me to it. This piece measures in at 38.5" H x 10.5" W.
