Symbolic masks, deeply rooted in various cultural and historical contexts, serve as representations of identity, emotion, and transformation. In this painting cycle, masks are used to explore themes of concealment and revelation. They challenge the viewer to question what lies beneath the surface, urging a deeper examination of the self and others. For instance, a mask might represent the facade people wear in society, hiding their true feelings and intentions. Alternatively, it could symbolize the multiple identities one might assume in different contexts, reflecting the fluid nature of human existence.
