2023 · When the Human Face Becomes the Mask

Blameless Post-Mortem

Medium: Water-based latex paint on canvas
Dimensions: 11x14"

One of nine portrait-sized paintings from "When the Human Face Becomes the Mask and Refuses to Lift" series. Each depict life-sized masks as the central subject, which appear to be in the process of subsuming the blurred heads on which they rest.
The vivid presence of the masks against the obscured figures reflects the struggle to maintain a sense of individuality and authentic self-expression in the ever-shifting landscape of remote work, frayed person-to-person interactions, and anxieties worsened by the pandemic, and continued social pressure to "put on a good face" throughout.
