Makishi Dancer (Costume & Mask) is a striking sculptural tribute to the ceremonial traditions of the Makishi masquerade. Created in 2021, this mixed-media piece combines cloth, hand-cut paper fringe, and a vividly painted papier-mâché mask. Spray paint adds bold color and texture, bringing ritual energy and modern expression together in one dynamic form.
The piece comes in very good condition and includes an additional costume element as well as a hand-painted grass skirt to complete the ensemble. Designed as both a displayable object and a cultural homage, it reflects Markham’s deep interest in ritual aesthetics and performative symbolism.
This artwork is hand-signed by the artist and accompanied by an official certificate of authenticity. A rare collectible for fans of contemporary folk-inspired art and ceremonial objects.
