Masquerade

My work deals with the postmodern identity and the self. The self as masquerade, image and surface effect. I question the authenticity of identity, as every identity, persona or role that we take on is fabricated only by us and it changes everyday, in every situation. So all of us are on stage all the time, where by putting on costumes and guises, make up the larger performance of our lives.
