MessageCollection: Masks
The exploration of an "Asian mask" - series, where either an acrylic resin base or plaster of Paris was used for the main corpus medium, paired with multiple other materials, like natural lichen, pine needles, Nordmann fir needles (recycled Christmas tree), Icelandic moss, found plastic parts (trash from Lake Geneva), yarn, acrylic balls, cut power cables (black, white, coloured) etc. The correlation between materials are explored by using always the same mask template but due to the different materials and techniques used, the expressions are amazingly different and release different likings and emotions for the viewers.
