The Most Beautiful Masks You Can Find!

Hi,

I'm a mask freak! Yes sorry... that's my only crazy anomaly.
I collect al sorts of masks.
My first mask i got from my grandfather as a gift and the collection went over the edge from there.
I own about 255 masks now i think?

But the most beautiful masks were created in Egypt!
Please share your most beautiful mask here okay?

Edit: Or statue's are accepted too!

@ShareActor, here is a couple shots of a mask that was made for halloween a few years ago. It has taken a bit of a beating, kids just wanna play...

I have a friend who is very into masks. She actually has incorporated them into her professional life. She led a workshop at my son's school, everyone made a mask or two. Hence, the stormtrooper.

The woman spends alot of time working with political refugee's. She is a psychology professor who does trauma counselling. As part of their therapy program, clients create masks to reconnect with emotions. A very simplistic view of a complex process.

Getting her started on the subject of masks leads to some amazing stories!

The bit of white fabric stiching out of the back of the first image is the white disposable coveralls that comlpeted the outfit.
