Uba represents a refined old woman. The downcast eyes, which are completely hollowed out, are the main feature of the mask. Though there are fine wrinkles on the forehead and brows, and the cheeks are somewhat sunken in, the overall impression of the mask is gentle and graceful.
I'm a nehiyaw artist, living in amiskwaciwâskahikan. I'm a traditional old school & portrait artist, I'm currently dabbling in portrait film photography & 90's grudge & wireframe pieces. I've been using these methods to modernizing traditional indigenous art for the last few years now. The word wâpos is nehiyawewin (cree) for rabbit, which is why there's a wâpos in all my prints.
