Acerca de este libro electrónico
Ritual Mask Making explores the captivating world of indigenous masks, revealing them not merely as artifacts but as vital components of spiritual rituals, cultural preservation, and governance. These masks, passed down through generations, serve as conduits to the spirit world, enabling connections with deities and ancestors in various indigenous cultures.
Intriguingly, masks also function as instruments of social and political order, reflecting authority and resolving conflicts, thereby challenging Western-centric views on art and power. The book traces the historical evolution of mask-making traditions, examining the impact of colonialism and globalization.
Through ethnographic studies, archaeological findings, and visual analysis, it presents a holistic view of these dynamic expressions of cultural identity. By delving into specific case studies across different cultures, the book highlights the materials, techniques, and symbolism inherent in these masks, emphasizing their contemporary relevance in promoting cultural revitalization and addressing ethical considerations surrounding their study and display.
