The Lives of Others Series. 10 of 56 singles Sculpture

While Greece, I attended Christos Kapralos museum, and was taken by his famous frieze Battle of Pindus, the battle that took place during the Second World War. The theme resonated with me on every level. I have been contemplating human emotions and traces and spots that these emotions leave on human faces, on human condition in general, and the image of a mask reminiscent of an Ancient Greek theatre came to me. The natural materials abundant in the region and traditions of Ancient Greek theatre moved me to creating 56 terracotta clay masks, which I then painted with acrylic paint. Looking at representational figurative sculpture of Karpalos was an experience that inspired my stylized frieze of Masks. The simplicity of their geometry and paint application was used to express simple and powerful emotions. The exuberant colours however are called to celebrate human spirit and a triumph of life. It took a few weeks of making, firing and painting these masks.
