Transforming Raven Mask

I made a mask that transforms from human form to bird form.

I was inspired by this kind of mask

 

And I wanted to combine that aesthetic with this one:

I went to one of the life-drawing co-ops at MCAD and this is what I did:

May Day Parade 2011

Throughout April, I attended community workshops where I helped to build the props and stuff for May Day Parade
by In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre in Minneapolis.

 

On May 1st, I marched in the parade.  My section was called "The Network of Infinite Connection and Possibility."  We built a big electric device that made sounds when audience members touched it.  We were in the larger umbrella section called "Universe of Union"

Info on this year's parade can be found here
