Janger Dancer Hibiscus Wood Mask from Indonesia

Nyoman Naranata

(51)

The florid headdress in this mask distinguishes the personification of a Janger dancer. Performed in Bali since the 1920's, the Janger was considered a "dance craze" performed by groups of 12 men and 12 women. The dance begins with everybody sitting down, and as the women sway from side to side, the men perform aggressive movements while chanting kecak. Eventually they all stand up to dance in couples. Nyoman Naranata celebrates the legendary dance with a vivid mask that is hand-carved from hibiscus wood.

Hibiscus wood exhibits colors ranging from white to light gray, dark gray or even black heartwood. This natural occurrence can rarely be replicated, making each carving exceptionally unique. Please expect slight differences in wood grain color and distribution patterns. Theme and artistic quality remain the same.

Her features are elegant and serene, her hairdo ornate. This mask is worn during rituals in Sierra Leone.

The Bundu mask was to be worn by an adult woman who taught them. Sinclair Yao Daley skillfully sculpts this exquisite mask from sese wood and finishes its sleek surface with natural cola nut dye.
