This mask is about the bright colors and faces we show the world around us.  We expose the pink, the pretty, the smiles….but the darkness is only just beneath the surface.  Sometimes it is physical illness, other times it is mental illness, grief, loss or the trials of everyday living that crack through the beautiful, acceptable colors we pretend to always be.  All of us are composed of opposites. We must know pain to truly enjoy pleasure.  Is there anyone who can sit with us in both the pink and the black?  Those can personify acceptance.
