Most Bamana are farmers, but many also choose to specialize in commerce, hunting, herbal medicine and even the arts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The group has a rich artistic history. Artists over the years have produced woven cloths and wrought iron figures. They also create traditional masks, which are then used in community and educational events.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The Bankoni also frequently make sculptures and pottery. Male sculptors traditionally <a href=\"https:\/\/scholarworks.iu.edu\/dspace\/bitstream\/handle\/2022\/3290\/blacksmiths.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">work in<\/a> iron and wood while female sculptors generally work in clay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">While Bankoni is the city in which the Bamana live, it also can refer to the style of art the Bamana\u2019s ancestors made. Bankoni art refers to a style of figure with tubular shapes, rounded edges and fluid contours. Bankoni art reflects the properties of the soft clay that is used to form these objects. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">\u201cCritter\u201d is a perfect example of a Bankoni work. Its legs, body and head all are made of tubular shapes. All of its edges are rounded. And its limbs and body form fluidly together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Visit the David Owsley Museum of Art today to see \u201cCritter,\u201d lent to the museum by David Owsley.
