IASG artists have worked over the past several months to create a show based on the “Mask” as a metaphor. The mask has a tranformative power when it becomes a metaphor, a container for the process. Through photography; oil on canvas; collage; mixed media and sculpture the participants strive to answer the questions: Who are we? What are the masks of self, of Divinity we call "I"? Is this face my own? Is this face mine, or is it the "other"? What lies beneath the last mask? IASG artists put this creativity to work and now invite you to view their work in support of the theme, “Behind the Mask.”
