The African tribal masks have deep cultural, spiritual, and artistic significance, yet it has been often misrepresented, or misunderstood.

Through self-portraiture and mixed media, I intent or rather reinterpret African tribal masks in a modern context while honoring their historical, spiritual, and cultural significance.

By placing these masks within meaningful environments, I challenge misconceptions

and invite viewers to them as a symbol of identity, heritage, and artistry rather than objects of fear and misunderstanding.
