A bird perches atop this mask by Godfred France, and leans forward to caress its beak on the headdress. Adorned with polished brass and aluminum repoussé, this mask is the artisan's own original design. He names it Looflo, which means "flying bird" in Ghana's Ga language.

Story Behind the Art:
As a child, Godfred France used to make boats with worn-out metal utensils, which he'd float in water. 'Due to financial constraints, my parents could not further my education and so I had to drop out of school and join my uncle, who was a wood carver. Thanks to the woodcarving, I've been able to educate my four children and I know that with constant sales, I'll be able to give them a brighter future than I had. This motivates me to wake up each day to carve!'
