Award of Recognition
2016 OISTAT World Costume Festival

This costume piece was created for the 2016 OISTAT World Costume Festival via an Ohio University Grad Costume Crafts class. I designed and created the Bobcat Skull Headdress in collaboration with my group, Glamour Bigfoot. Our inspiration words were "Primal, Brown, Metallic, and Grounded". I am the one modeling the piece.

The Ezekiel Award was for my work on the headdress. The OISTAT Award was for the entire ensemble.
