Djomo (Mask) | Dogon Tribe

£10,500.00

Djomo represents intelligence — the calculating counterpart to Dana, the great hunter. During the dance the two work together: strength and skill directed by thought. I photographed Djomo between structures left by the Tellem, who occupied the Bandiagara Escarpment from around the eleventh century until the arrival and expansion of the Dogon several centuries later. Their homes, granaries and burial places remain embedded throughout the cliffs, creating a physical record of the people who inhabited this landscape before the Dogon. The result is a landscape built in layers: generations living among, adapting and preserving the structures left by those who came before them.

EDITIONS

Each photograph in this collection is available within a carefully defined edition structure, preserving the distinction between limited collectible works and bespoke architectural commissions.

Exhibition Edition

Selected photographs within the collection have been designated for an Exhibition Edition limited to ten numbered works worldwide, together with one Artist’s Proof.

Edition of 10 + 1 AP
841 × 594 mm

Printed on 315 g/m², 100% cotton archival fine art paper, each photograph is individually proofed, printed and inspected under the artist’s supervision.

Each work is signed, numbered and embossed with the artist’s stamp, and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

The numbered Exhibition Editions have not yet been released.

Framing

Each Exhibition Edition and Artist’s Proof is archivally mounted onto an acid-free substrate, ensuring the photograph remains perfectly flat while providing additional protection and longevity.

The work is double mounted, retaining a considered white border, and presented within a handcrafted hardwood box frame.

Museum-grade, optically clear, anti-reflective glass sourced from Switzerland completes the presentation, providing 99% UV protection while preserving the clarity, colour and detail of the photograph.

Exhibition Editions and Artist’s Proofs are produced to a fixed size and specification.

Prices exclude shipping.

ARCHITECTURAL PRINTS

Selected photographs from the collection may also be commissioned as Architectural Prints, custom-produced for residential, commercial, hospitality and interior installations.

Created specifically for the space in which they will be seen, Architectural Prints can be produced in custom dimensions and a range of contemporary presentation formats, including Diasec, acrylic and aluminium mounting.

In these formats, the photographic image becomes an integral part of the finished piece, permanently bonded to its presentation and intended to remain as such.

Architectural Prints are unsigned and unnumbered and exist entirely outside the limited Exhibition Editions and Artist’s Proofs.

Please enquire to discuss dimensions, presentation and pricing.

Production & Delivery

Each work is produced individually to order and undergoes final inspection before leaving the studio.

Works are dispatched from Cape Town, South Africa, with tracking details provided upon shipment.

As each work is individually produced and finished, please allow sufficient time for production prior to dispatch. Where the artist is travelling, production may be scheduled for his return to ensure that each work receives the same level of personal oversight.

In the unlikely event that a work is lost or damaged in transit, please contact the studio promptly so that the matter can be resolved.

All dimensions are stated as accurately as possible. Minor variations may occur as a result of the individual production, mounting and framing process.
