In earlier days, the things we wore did more than just keep us warm. They were often pieces of art, carrying meaning about our cultures and our beliefs.There are tribes that don’t even wear clothes who still use costumes in ceremonies, imbued with functions and meanings that, today, are barely understood. As time churns on and the world homogenizes, these costumes are fading out of use and memory—and the stories behind them are being lost.

The Yup’ik people come from the cold, hard winters of Siberia. In their part of the world, food can be scarce. When the hunters would go out to find food, they would rely on the magic of shamans.Yup’ik shamans wore incredible painted masks out of wood and would lead ceremonies meant to ensure that the hunting went well. The ritual was a type of prayer, meant to get the help of spirit to placate the animals they would hunt.They would also serve as the village’s medicine men. If someone was sick, they would contact spirit helpers who would ward off the evil that was hurting them.When the Europeans came up through the north, though, the Yup’ik people were converted to Christianity. The traditional dances were banned, and the masks became nothing more than art projects to hang on the wall.
