Masked."Give him a mask, and he will tell you

the truth"- Oscar Wilde

Julie Morstad

Mystery? Intrigue? Playfulness?

Why a mask?• Masks are worn for performance, entertainment, disguise, concealment,

or protection. They have been around since ancient times and have been used in ceremony, storytelling, and dramatic enactment. Making a mask invites you to explore the persona you reveal or conceal from the world.

• Persona actually is a word that derives from the Latin for "mask," but often refers to the practical and successful personality that we use most of the time in the workplace and social relationships.

• Carl Gustav Jung wrote extensively about the concept of persona and the various ways it manifests itself. He also proposed that there is a dark side to the personality, well-know to the field of psychology as the shadow. It includes both repressed, instinctual feelings and untapped potential. To me, the shadow is not just the "evil" opponent of persona, but is also imagination and creativity left behind or forgotten because of sensible or good behavior.
