"This mask is about the harmonious relationship that can exist between living creatures," says Kwaku Ofosuhene Apenteng of his original design. "Birds are gift of nature, created by God to fulfill a promise. Birds do not weed, farm or work, but their daily needs are provided by God." Apenteng carves the sese wood mask by hand featuring a horned headdress and a bird looking down holding a green cotton tassel as a sign of peace.
