MASK BRIEF

For this weeks brief, following on from the 3D sculpture task, we were instructed to make a mask using any media. Not being the biggest fan of 3D sculpture work, I opted for an embroidery hoop and I used thread as a means of communication for my mask. I produced half using flowers and used lots of loose threads for the other contrasting side of the mask. 

I got a lot of inspiration from Jose Romussi who is an embroidery artist I have followed for some time. I love the way he uses embroidery to essentially mask identities and highlight different aspects of moods and feelings inside and outside the body.
