SOKWE FINDS A HAT
Using last year’s Christmas bonus, Sokwe took his family on vacation this summer to Papua New Guinea. After a 3 day trek out of Rukwa, Tanzania to Dar es Salaam, they caught a $99 supersaver flight on Sepik River Airlines to Port Moresby. During the week-long trip they feasted on roasted fruit bat and bought a cheap souvenir gope board. It was on an eco-tour of Mailu Island that Sokwe found this hat with it’s tapa cloth hatband, and shrunken head. Maybe discarded by some early century explorer, perhaps even Malinowski, Bernatzit, or Hurley. Look how proud he is with his new hat, what a story Sokwe will have to tell his grandchimps someday.
Here's a bit of irony, in 3 years I have made only 2 pieces that included feathers - looks like the same collector is going to end up with both of them :D
