Stuff we like : Magic on Earth by Jean-Claude Moschetti

In West African societies, Jean-Claude writes, the supernatural is part of the daily life and the mask is often a mediator between the living world and the supernatural world of the dead, ancestors and other entities.

We particularly like Jean-Claude’s triptychs where he seems to bring together in a very powerful way the magical forces of the landscape and the otherworldly presence of the masked spirits.
