Ouagadougou SIAO Mask - Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso

About the SIAO Mask

Ouagadougou is the capital of Burkina Faso, host of the legendary SIAO (Salon International de l'Artisanat de Ouagadougou) — Africa's largest arts and crafts fair. The event's iconic mask symbol draws on the region's rich tradition of ceremonial masks used by the Mossi, Bobo, and Bwa peoples in rituals, harvest celebrations, and spiritual ceremonies. These intricately carved and painted masks represent the soul of West African artistic expression, making Ouagadougou a global hub for African craft and cultural exchange.
