The origins of a mask can be traced back thousands of years. Often surrounded by rituals or social gatherings.
It’s a tool to honor our ancestors and heroes. Become a different person, or even commit a crime.
All of this history, rituals, duality and meaning are a great starting point for my investigation. How can I translate all of this information into a personal design?
What material should I use to make a piece that reflects the profoundness of the subject?
This duality is the starting point for my project ‘Dekmantel’. A start of many questions; What do I show to the world, or better to the people around me? Do I show my most inner self or do I hide behind a ‘mask’?
With this project I want to stop people in their tracks. Let them think about their own masks in relationships with others?
