Nootka Wolf Mask.

The Nootka--now more often referred to as Westcoast People--are an American Indian group on Vancouver Island. They were, traditionally, master wood carvers and used wood in many aspects of their lives: their houses, furniture, canoes, containers, masks, and headdresses. Wood was also used for clothing: they crafted robes out of shredded cedar bark, and made ceremonial garments by weaving cedar bark with mountain-goat wool.  The mask above would likely have been used by a dancer during a performance.

Mike Perry's show PULLED just got installed at SPACE! It's a fantastic catalogue of screenprints. Come check it out: Space members get to have a sneak peek tomorrow night, and there's an opening for the general public on Thursday. Get there. 

Here's one of my favorite prints in the show. It's made by Sonnenzimmer.

Jacqueline Ford: Eyes in the Dark

I'm really in love with this limited edition, glow in the dark print from UK artist Jacqueline Ford. Check out more of her work HERE. Among other things, I'm really enjoying her letterpress experiments.
