Mudhead Family with Child

This sculpture has 3 mudheads and one small child. The mudheads represent a trickster spirit who plays a vital role in religious ceremonies by acting as a messenger, entertainer, and sometimes a disciplinarian, often engaging with the audience during dances with playful antics and games; their mud-covered appearance symbolizes their connection to the earth and their ability to bridge the spiritual and earthly realms. This piece is approximately 4 inches tall.
