My Project

In this reflective art and writing project, students will create a two-sided mask, using pre-made paper masks and acrylic paint, that represents their identity. The outer side of the mask will depict how students present themselves to the world, while the inner side will reflect their true self-perception.

Accompanying the mask, students will write an essay analyzing the similarities and differences between the two sides, exploring themes of authenticity, self-expression, and societal expectations.

Inspired by the theatrical masks of ancient Greece, this project encourages deep personal reflection and meaningful discussion about the ways we "wear masks" in everyday life.
