I like the first picture, of the person contorted, related to masking very much. It captures the sense of being distorted (having to perform a magic trick?) and cramped in the body; with everything too tight. It is a powerful visual expression of this intention.
Thank you for posting my piece “Sundark” :) and I love the other pieces of art here too.
