1.3.2024Masks
Masks can be grotesque, sacred, mysterious, beautiful, terrifying, frightening and much more. They show and conceal at the same time. Masks have two sides. They oscillate between the inside and the outside - connecting and separating at the same time. They allow us to change roles, to role-play and are also a metaphor for our social role behaviour. Masks are an offer to change.

Some things we wouldn't want to be without. They accompany us, they are a home for us, a connection. They are favourite things. How can favourite things provide inspiration for new things?
