Limited Edition Print of 5 17.5" x 21.5"Portrait Photography + Digital Mixed Media Archival pigment print on paper 100% cotton 305gsm Buffalo Ghost is a limited edition photographi c self-portrait by Benjamin L. West, created in the sacred landscape of Bear Butte, South Dakota. In this powerful work, West veils his identity with a weathered buffalo skull, embodying both spirit and survival. The image blurs the boundary between portrait and ritual, summoning ancestral presence and the resilience of the Plains. With stark tones and windswept terrain, the piece becomes an invocation of memory, land, and identity. Buffalo Ghost is a meditation on Indigenous embodiment, where the buffalo becomes myth, mask, and mirror. Show more
