Another old one from 2005. I was taking a ceramics class and the assignment was to make a mask, so I made one that looks like a sockeye salmon because they are so delightfully hideous.

There are eyeholes over the gills, which are not very apparent once you put it on. The mask is really comfortable on your face, but too heavy to be very practical so it's mostly just for decoration. I have no idea how big this piece is and I don't have it with me to measure it. My mom currently has this thing. She keeps it on the kitchen table and uses it to bother the cat, terrify the houseguests, and hold the mail (it holds paper napkins during dinner. Who knew a gigantic fishhead would be such a nice centerpiece? I know it's certainly what I like to look at while I eat.)

Unfortunately there's a lot of detail that gets lost in these photos, which makes me sad. Modeling the fishhead is my friend and classmate who was oddly fond of this thing.
