The Ouattara twins, Assane and Ousseni, form a dynamic sculptor duo from France, known for their profound connection to African culture and their artistic mission to preserve and revitalize its essence. Their journey delves into the intricate world of African masks, exploring their cultural significance and reimagining them as contemporary works of art while respecting their spiritual roots.
African masks hold a revered status within the culture, often considered as religious objects with profound spiritual significance. They are akin to sacred relics, similar to how a church holds its sanctity. Just as religious objects can be desecrated or imbued with divine power, African masks too can undergo transformations, with their powers transferred to other masks. This transformation, however, does not diminish their role as objects of art, allowing them to transcend their religious origins and stand as artistic masterpieces.
For many years, the Ouattara twins have dedicated themselves to forging connections with Burkinabe mask companies, seeking to convey the purpose behind their artistic endeavors: the promotion and revitalization of Burkinabe culture. Their approach involves creating contemporary art inspired by traditional objects, crafting copies of these objects while infusing them with their unique symbolism. In doing so, they not only honor the rich African heritage but also contribute to its preservation.
