Carved from a piece of Broad Leaf Willow that Fred Fulmer left in Siteeyi Gheeyi/Glacier Bay in 2025, this Tlingit Kaa/Man Face Mask is a quiet, powerful piece born from the land itself. The wood waited. In July 2026, Fred returned and brought it to life.
At 98% complete, this mask is available upon completion. Final price confirmed at $550.00.
This is a smaller, intimate work — a Kaa/Man face rendered in the traditional Tlingit carving style, made by hand in Gustavus, Siteeyi Gheeyi/Glacier Bay, Alaska, during Season 2026.
— Fred Fulmer, Xuna/Hoonah Tlingit Elder and Cultural Bearer
