Named Ofono – an Adamgbe word meaning "pouring of libation" – this colorful mask invites celebration. Sefah Mohammed carves and paints the piece by hand, adding textures with white clay and applying embossed aluminum to the forehead. "Such masks are used by the Ga-Adamgbe people from Greater Accra a week before the annual Asafotufian Festival to seek a good celebration. This normally takes place during the first week of August," Mohammed says.
