Bocio Fon Fetish

Voodoo rituals among the Ewe / Fon

Ex-collection African art France

Astonishing Fon "Bocio" fetish made as part of the Voodoo or Vodun rite. Very close to the Ewe, the Fon sculpt figurines which they integrate into magico-religious fetishes made up of ropes, padlocks, sacrificial materials and many other accessories. The stylization of the figurines testifies to this cultural and artistic proximity with the Ewe.
