We make our masks from pure mud at Komonive in Asaro, Eastern Highlands Province.
It took me an hour to make this. After moulding it, I left it in the sun to dry so I can use it for tonight’s event.
In the past, our forefathers used these masks to hide their faces and fight. Today, we just display it whenever there are big events.
