Chong: The Mask, speculative

A mask of reaction when you enter a room or space? I get totally blank up when I first receive the title of this project. What kind of room or space to enter? What is the expression of mine would be on that time? How about the feeling in my deep heart? I get none from these question marks. No idea at all under such situation. Just when i see through the windows of my room, suddenly i get my inspiration. Without any hesitation, me and my friend start to do the ''mask facial''.

Here is the process of how to make the mask.....

Firstly, use PE Food Wrap to cover the face.
Then, put some tissue paper on it to do as
the basement of the mask.

Paste some papers on it to cover up the whole face
except the nose. Use glue to stick the
layer of tissue paper and the paper.

Insert more layer by putting more paper on the mask.
Ensure the whole face are completely covered with paper
except the nose. Wait the glue dry and the mask to turn harden.

Take the mask out. It is done!

Lastly, design and draw the expression
of the mask and then color it. It is fully completed!

So, i would like to explain the meaning of the mask.....

I lived at the 5th floor in Tekun Hostel. When i see through the window in my room at night time, what i see is a prosperous town with lots of cars and brighten house. Some people are seems to be very busy, rushing here and there or even dash over the traffic light. It is definitely a nice scenery at night time when all the buildings are brighten up with the light.

However, there is always a bad behind the good. Pollution of the town is so serious that the fog around the air of the city make the view kind of blurring. This is because of the countless of car in the city. Large amount of usage of electricity of the houses also provide non-environmental friendly. Basically all these will cause to pollution. These are all the human behaviors full of selfishness. Lots of frustration and sadness come to my deep heart. It is sad to see the human are still continuing to destroy our Earth even though the Earth has already injured. Everyone only care about their own wealth and status without caring others.

So here i decided to use a sad face with frustration to show out the selfishness and opinionated of human nowadays.
