Creative Access Description
A black and white landscape image of a Métis woman and a Snaw-Naw-As man standing side-by-side while performing in a dimly lit room. The woman has her right hand spread open over her chin as she fixes her face and gaze upwards. She has long dark hair and wears a leather jacket with hanging fringes, a black top underneath and a bandana rolled and tied as a headband around her head. Next to her, the man, who has long dark hair, wears a white mask that obscures all of his face except for two slits for his eyes and a gap for his mouth. The mask is tied around his head and is sculpted to his face, made from paper mache, plaster or a similarly textured material. He is also wearing a light-coloured T-shirt and white pants. His head is turned towards her, looking at her while having one hand behind her back. In the background are white gallery walls with a corner of a collage-like artwork mounted on the wall to the right.Description
