DOGON, "LEANERS", Mali

These unique figures depart from the usual Dogon rigid totemic forms. The story we've been told is that they were magically seen in the twisted trunks of trees by a Dogon spiritual leader and described to the village carver, who then "liberated" the figure.

Numbers 6-11 have been worked on with a special tool to give them their pitted texture. Clearly designed as "pairs," we believe these were created for the art market and we have priced them accordingly.
