Hannya: The Jealous Female Demon of Japanese Noh Theater

Vinicius Crisântemo on Instagram: "The Hannya mask is one of the most intense and fascinating symbols of Japanese culture. She appears in the Noh theater, representing a woman consumed by extreme feelings - especially jealousy, attachment and love pain - who, by not being able to deal with these emotions, ends up turning into a demon. Despite her fierce appearance, with horns, sharp teeth and threatening expression, Hannya is not just a symbol of evil. On the contrary: it carries a deep duality.
