BACKGROUND STORY
The darkly satirical pop-art portraits which make up the Masks of Fear collection explore the new age of world leaders. How have we reached the stage where leaders of the free world are now so disaffected they become biased and blasé. What is it that drives their campaigns of fear?
The collection speaks of Trump’s xenophobic traits against Mexicans, Kim Jung-un’s deep resentment for western society, and Putin’s views on the LGBH community and the infamous Pussy Riot movement.
With more and more people engaging in the current political climate, Masks of Fear is not just intended as a zeitgeist piece, but is a talking piece that captures a (shit) moment in time.
