For over ten years I've been photographing different masks from around the world.
Some are mine, some belong to friends, and some photos are courtesy of the artists who made them. Studying the variety of cultures and their mask making abilities has taught me to appreciate the common denominators as well as the vast extreme use of materials, expressions, and personalities represented by the artists, shamans, craft persons, and priests who created them in the own image of God and/or Man.. This collection is intended to reflect and bring together the diversity and connection of understanding our representation of ourselves and our Gods.
Wonderful collection of images
