This sculpture is a hybrid of two spiritual beings. Miko is the term for a female Japanese shaman who serves as an intermediary between the human world and the divine realms. Jizo, also a Japanese term, is a deity in Buddhism. Jizo is dedicated to easing the suffering of all beings and is particularly associated with protecting children and saving beings who are in hell realms.
Hand painted and sculpted clay head with feathers, Tibetan brass bells, and wooden skull bead on vintage Chinese brush. Mounted on metal stand.
