About this item

"Dazed with a blank stare, this bird-headed mask calls on the descendants of dinosaurs to assemble and take to the skies. Working to advance Ghana's mask-making sector, artisan Philip Dankwa experiments with the uncanny, pushing the confines of the very definition of a mask. Specializing in woodworking since learning the craft at a young age, Dankwa carves this sese wood mask utilizing sculpting techniques inherited from master carvers in eastern Ghana."

Philip Dankwa wood masks and decor

My name is Philip Dankwa; I was born in 1981. I am respectful, kind and hardworking. My specialization is in wood art. My love for art grew stronger at the secondary school level. I had the strong edge to do art, and so I studied art. Also whenever I visited museums, the love for art grew stronger. After my secondary school education, a close friend of mine who was into carving taught me to carve and finish. With respect, love and kindness, I learned the craft successfully.
