Marabou stands in front of transformation mask made by the great-granddaughter of George Hunt, Corinne Hunt and her husband David Mungo Knox. A mask like this was illustrated in Boas’ 1897 book, but was not fully explained. George Hunt eventually explained that the original mask belonged to his first wife. The family connection inspired Corinne to recreate and reactivate the mask. Created in 2018-19. Cedar, pigment, string, hardware. Owned by the Hunt Family.
Marabou is seen at the lower left of the image, their back to the camera. In the distance is a screen showing a bay in northwest Canada. To the left, a Kwakwa̱ka̱’wakw transformation mask is on display. The main body is the head of a killer whale with its mouth open, painted in green, red, and black.
