Decorative mask made from dyed natural palm leaves with vegetable pigments. A unique piece with strong symbolic and artisanal character.

The masks are made as if for a ritual, following a long and meticulous artisanal process.
They are crafted from palm leaves collected from the forest, from a common variety of palms called Chunga.

The softest parts of the palms are first harvested, then dried before being bleached. Once prepared, the leaves are assembled into bundles and dyed using natural dyes.
The pigments are obtained from fruit pulp, wood chips, seeds, leaves, or roots, sometimes requiring several successive baths to achieve the desired shade.

After this long preparation work, the artisan then begins her creation work. This requires not only a great artistic sense but also an unparalleled know-how, transmitted and held exclusively by the women of the Wounnans and Emberas tribes in Central America.

Each mask is a unique piece, bearing meaning, material, and memory, conceived as a strong and symbolic decorative object.
