A mask of a phoenix that I made for The Gnostic Eden dance production in Hong Kong [link]

This is one of seven masks which are supposed to depict the seven archons related to the gnostic creation myth. The original myth describes this archon as having a face of bright flames; the director of the production instead wanted to have a phoenix.

The mask is made of 8oz leather, hand carved and shaped and then painted with soft-bodied acrylics.

Thank you! The toughest part was cutting out all the little fiery edges and cleaning them up. Painting it was actually pretty fun!
