Lot 3 : Rice deity 'bulul'


Translate // traduire

Rice deity 'bulul'
Ifugao, Village of Kaba Bujan, Philippines

wood, sightly encrusted black patina, rising from a massive, indented base, the stylized body arranged frontal and symmetrical, a hole on top of the head closed by a wooden plug and hair, min. dam., cracks, slight traces of abrasion;
the ritual sequence associated with the production of 'bulul' images is long, elaborate, and requires considerable expenditure of resources. During activation ceremonies the 'bulul' figures are bathed in the blood of a sacrificed pig, and at the conclusion of the ritual the figures are placed in the granary. They are associated with the production of bountiful harvests, capable of miraculously increasing the rice before and after it is stored in the granary. They are usually made in pairs, one male and one female. They are inherited by the first child of the family, along with associated rice fields.
