wearable arts

We got our idea for our costume  from the Day of the dead. The day of the dead is when they remember the deceased ones. They leave gifts for them at there grave so the can have something in the afterlife.

We have made a mask and a hat out of paper mache. The body is made of rubbish bags. The rubbish bags were cut and shaped to fit our model. The mask has traditional sugar skull patterns .



Our inspiration was seeing masks on the internet and seeing other cool costumes. we didn't do well at working together and getting it all done. We did well at painting the mask and hat. Next time we could paint the mask better and finish all the work.
