Kerry Healy wears a mask by Anna Layard
Masks have long been a part of many cultures throughout the world. The Balinese, from their culture rooted in animism, in Mexico, in Day of the Dead festivities, in many African cultures to the Fire Dancers of Papua New Guinea (see Kate Webster’s story here.)
In The Year of Covid-19 masks have become controversial and even political. There are those who feel their rights are being taken away from them when governments make the wearing of them mandatory.
Others choose to accept the scientific evidence that masks help prevent the spread of Covid-19, and regardless of whether they are comfortable or not, they wear them in public.
We are in the group that likes to have Fun With Masks. People have come to use them as an expression of their individuality or to convey something of their personality Some are very artistic.
