Mask / Persona
This exhibition focuses on the motif of the mask, which has appeared repeatedly in various forms of expression, including paintings, drawings, sculptures, and performances, and highlights its role in revealing hidden emotions and the essence of humanity.
The artist uses masks as a motif to explore the ambiguous boundaries between appearance and inner self, reality and imagination, self and others, and to raise the universal question of what it means to be human.
