Miami mask
60 by 48 inches by 2.5 inches deep.

Based on shapes from the map of modern day Miami I unearthed this mask and its fictitious story. The mask exhibits features that hint at ceremonial significance, possibly representing a deity or ancestral figure. The colors suggest it was once a revered object, integral to the rituals of its time. This discovery not only provides insight into the cultural practices of the civilization that created it but also opens a window into the artistry and craftsmanship that have long since vanished from history.
