I'd like to introduce you to the newest addition to my red wall - very close to Bakuba, the Congolese engagement mask, and at the side of my [increasingly dusty] classical guitar - a Nigerian wedding mask, purchased from a new friend at Eastern Market last weekend. As a result of my feverish wanderlust in the past few years, I've begun what I fear will be a consuming passion for collecting masks and maps. I'm now on the hunt for pre-colonial maps of Africa.Why post it?
Because I'm captivated by his squinty glare over my left shoulder as I try and write my personal history in application for the Fulbright. It's quite distracting.
