Encaramado sobre una máscara alargada recubierta de arcilla blanca, un pájaro se inclina para acariciarle la frente. Salihu Ibrahim talla la pieza a mano al estilo del pueblo Senufo de Mali y el norte de Costa de Marfil. "Los cazadores usan máscaras como ésta antes de salir a cazar", dice. "Se cree que llevar la máscara da buena suerte, ya que el blanco es un color de suerte". Los pigmentos rojos se consiguen moliendo una piedra roja, mientras que el carbón aporta los toques negros.
