Textile artist Jody Quackenbush and photographer Michelle Lucking collaborate in exploring the transformative and anonymous experience of wearing a mask.
Through styled shoots, digital photographic manipulation, mixed media and wearable sculptures the duo have created a
catalogue of engaging, ethereal and moody portraits. They are imbued with an animistic aura and sense of inhibiting a spirit.
Quackenbushs’ masks are created in an organic and spontaneous fashion using harvested collections of fabric and small objects. Many of these hold sentimental significance.
In this series the models wear masks that are an antidote to
a narcissistic culture and are created to represent the desire to be clothed and therefore anonymous.
