Le jour du Mardi Gras, je suis allé à Binche, ville wallonne de Belgique, pour assister au Carnaval. J'en ai profité pour visiter le très intéressant Mumask (Musée international du Carnaval et du Masque). Ici l'aile des masques et costumes du Monde.

masque du dieu protecteur Mgon-Po, pour la danse "Cham" - Tibet, XXe s.

masques funéraires : "tatanua'" pour le malanggan (fin de deuil) - Nouvelle-Irlande, Papouasie-Nouvelle-Guinée, XXe s. ; "bwoom", pour la mise en terre - kuba, République Démocratique du Congo, mi-XXe s.

masque-costume de rite funéraire jipae - asmat, PNG, XXe s.

masque de deuil, d'Ancêtre Mariwin - matis, Amazonie, Brésil, XXIe s.

masque-heaume "hemba" pour la circoncision - kwese, RDC

masque de deuil d'' "unchiasul" (vieillard) - Vrancea, Roumanie, fin XXe s.

I realized I never posted these goobers!

I made a few ocs for fun, Kid's friends from his old school!

Lucas: A bit of a goofball, always finding a way to make his friends laugh! Has a bit of a sassy personality.

Vivian/Via: Kinda like the leader of their small group, Via is very bold and creative when it comes to figuring out what they should play! She always makes sure that her friends are alright. Billy and Lily kind of reminded Kid of her.

Matis: Very sweet boy, has a bit of charm to him. He is the son of the owner of "Tech Meta Enterprise", so he is rich. Despite that, he is very caring of his friends, and always wants to play with them.

Edit: realized I probably should put this here for context:

The universe finally takes pity on the team and delivers them to Vermillion City. It's finally time for a Gym Challenge. (He's going to do this with Pikachu again, isn't he?)

Fun fact: Lt. Surge/Matis is an American soldier, so a lot of his dialogue is in English.
