GLBYuki-onna: The Enigmatic Spirit of Winter (CLOSED)
167
My 3D entry is inspired by the myth of Yuki-onna, a prominent figure in Japanese folklore. Known as the "Snow Woman," she is a beautiful yet eerie yokai often associated with winter. Yuki-onna is the personification of death in a severe snowstorma theme symbolized in my work by the kanji for "death" etched into the snow, surrounded by blood splashes.
Her legends often describe her as a tall, pale woman with long black hair, wearing a flowing white kimono. Yuki-onna belongs to the lengthy list of yokai, the supernatural creatures in Japanese folklore that include monsters, demons, spirits, and mythical beings. While she may not be as widely recognized as other yokai, Yuki-onna is well known among those living in Japan's colder, mountainous regions.
According to tradition, Yuki-onna is said to appear during Koshigatsu (or "Little New Year"), which takes place on January 15th. This festival marks the end of the year in many regions and coincidentally aligns with the date of the entry reviews for this contest.
