My Mask series was born from my interest in human interactions. My paintings focus on the concept of identity and how it is performed. I chose to take on a more literal sense, through masks and costume. I am interested in how people choose to communicate and express themselves and how one alters oneself according to their surroundings. I enjoy watching people interact, sometimes it can feel like they are performing on television or in a play.
