Shi-Shi MASK(獅子頭)

The Kunitachi Museum houses two traditional ‘SHI-SHI’ (lion) masks, which are used during the sacred festivals at Yaho Tenmangu Shrine. When the festival begins, performers don these striking masks and dance wildly to the powerful, hypnotic beat of traditional drums, bringing the ancient ritual to life with incredible energy.
