My mask would probably be best described as formalism. I was not thinking of a deeper meaning behind it when I made it, I was just enjoying having the chance to make art. I knew I wanted to do something with beads and glitter because I love them both. With that said, I do not feel that it bears any relationship to my real/idea self-portrait.
"The Kiss" Klimt
"The Kiss" by Klimt is the art historical example I choose to relate my mask too. It is jeweled just like the one in the picture and the coloring is similar.
