| Mask:
The,”Mask “ series I begun
because I believe that life is like a play with many players,
scenes, endings. When we are in need, we project onto others
what we need to survive. In life, some people are going to
be good guys, other bad.
Osho,
the mystic, says, that there are at least 100 people inside
of us, and at any given minute one of them is going to break
out and appear.
Likewise, any of these spirits could reveal themselves as
a killer, or a saint. Yet, the worst could happen when you
project yourself onto someone else unwillingly in order to
act out. Life ultimately, is a very selfish act, we are so
self involved, we hardly slow down enough to see it.
So my intention was to capture, many of my different moods,
daily experiences, much like a visual diary.
There is a Latin word, “ simulacrum,” which means,”
Mask in Life”. Gurjieff the Mystic, talks about our
false personalities, these different personalties could appear
most often in our days when you are being hustled by somthing
like a insurance salesman; when they are lying onto themselves.
Then there is the question of trust. Why as in life you open
your door to the Pizza man, and not to others. Or why we put
huge picture windows in our beautiful homes to let the outside
world in, and yet also put tremendous security systems to
keep them out.
The goal is to see yourself behind all of your masks, all
of your illusions, and become free.
Embrace all as self.
