Module 10 Mask

Inspiration models:
The mask uses elements of symmetry, contrast, and geometric shapes to give the mask a certain feel. 
The mask uses elements of symmetry, and puts an emphasis on functionality rather than looks and meaning.
The mask uses elements of symmetry, round shapes, and contrasting colors.

Sketches:

My mask:
I went with sketch #3. In my mask I used the elements of symmetry, color, and shape. The mask is mostly made up of rectangles. I used the colors red and black because red is a color that grabs attention and black is a good match for red.

It shows the pain and suffering of the civilians affected by it. 3. What is the relationship of this work to the time and society in which it was created? Describe the symbols used to express this relationship. "Guernica" is a political statement against the Nazi's b...
