Deliverance Ewe wood mask
Parallel lines represent decorative scarification on the smooth cheeks and forehead of this mask. Echoed by neat rows of braids, they bring visual fascination to a design by Daniel Nyadedzor. He names it Edem, an Ewe word meaning 'he has delivered me.' Among this Ghanaian tribe, such masks are given as a sign of appreciation to a person who saves another from disgrace.
