Is it a sculpture? Is it an architectural feature? Is it a mask? In taking a simple paper mask, tilting it, and adding embellishments, a sort of "grotesque" is formed. The eyes look at you, and you can't look away. Donated to the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture's Artfest Art Auction, who knows where this piece will end up hanging?
