An outing of Dogon masks in Sangha, Mali. The 400,000 Dogon live 180 miles south of Timbuktu on the cliffs of Bandiagara, which dominate the plains for over 150 miles. They speak approximately 120 dialects. Because of the difficult approach to these regions and the aridity of the climate, the Dogon have been isolated and hence were able to conserve their ancient religious habits and ways of making their carvings.

The Dogon stilt walkers and masked dancers are something else 🤯 Draped in richly coloured costumes and iconic carved masks, their performances are full of power, energy, and spirit. In many West African cultures, masked dance is a living practice, passed through generations, rooted in tradition and connection. Special thanks to @ginopop for sharing this video. #dogon #mali #dogonmask #africanmusic #africandance | African Drumming
