This is another of the many exhibits that have taken place at the Desert Botanical Garden. This exhibit was inside the small gallery that is at the garden. They draped the entire room in black drapes to display this group of BioMythic Masks created by artist Gwynn Popovac.
I remember this one very well because I went back several times to view the masks while the exhibit was there from January of 2010 to January of 2011.
I found the masks fascinating. They were made from a variety of materials and they certainly have a certain mythological air about them. When I was in that small gallery looking at them, it felt like they were looking at me too.
I loved looking at these photos again. It was almost like revisiting the exhibit one more time!
Wow, really beautiful these masks !
ReplyDeleteWow what a beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteWild! It's great to have these photos and, as you said, revisit the exhibit.
ReplyDeleteWhat a variety. Someone put a lot of constructed hours of skills in to creating these wonder pieces of art.
ReplyDeleteVery fancy and unusual masks Sharon.
ReplyDeleteGreat lighting.
ReplyDeleteThe masks and the photos are fabulous, Sharon! Wild stuff!
ReplyDeleteI often see things in my photos that I didn't see while I was taking them. Kinda makes photography all the more worthwhile.
ReplyDeleteI would visit that display. For some reason I like to look at masks.

Great exhibit. I like the second one the best. The ones with their mouths agape are kind of scary.
