Masked Identity
The objective behind this project was to create a mask that covered the face of the student, allowing them to create a new identity.
Materials
Wire
Tracing paper
Gel Medium
Ink
Statement
The idea I had behind my mask was one of hidden beauty. Most people when buying flowers chose roses to give to their loved ones, the roses are a symbol of beauty. My mask resembles a Venus fly trap, which is not typically given to loved ones or seen as a symbol for beauty. I was interested in the hidden beauty inside of the fly trap, and how you only can see it if you look hard enough.
The symbol I chose was rose pedals. This represents an idea of deconstructed beauty, because the rose is not whole.
