Unit: Masks

Guiding Question: What's underneath a mask?
What am I going to cover in this unit?

  • Masks in history and different cultures
  • Design and build your own mask, which reflect you in some way.
  • Follow creative cycle (investigate, plan, create, evaluate.
Specifications for mask:
  • Wearable and/or hangable
  • 2D elements (painted)
  • 3D elements (sculpted)
  • Contain both naturalistic and symbolic elements that reflect yourself  ( if it is naturalistic it becomes more like a self portrait; if it is symbolic, it appears more abstract.)
Things to consider: How do you appear to others? How do you want others to see you? What identity do you want to have?
