Description

The Guro peoples of Cote dIvoire revere 5 animals above all others, and one of them is the mighty elephant. The Guro believe that animals represent links between the human world and the spirit world. Salihu Ibrahim of Ghana faithfully represents a Guro-style elephant mask, carved of sese wood with fierce tusks and a long curving trunk.
