With-out Mask
2012 // Izmir Mask Museum, IZMIR

In ‘Without Mask,’ the artist delves into the enigma of concealed authenticity. Amidst life’s intricacies, why do we adorn and modify masks in our interactions? Do these masks conceal our aspirational selves? Do they cocoon our insecurities within a veneer of dominance and safety? This collection embarks on a journey of self-exploration, questioning the peril of forfeiting our genuine essence for the allure of these masks. ‘Without Mask’ becomes an artistic prism to contemplate the complex dichotomy of embracing or shedding these masks, beckoning viewers to ponder our intricate relationship with authenticity.
