Description

I am not sure who was more inquisitive.... Was it me on seeing this young man wearing a white theatrical mask while out riding his bike, or was he the more curious, after spotting me armed with a camera, followed by my determination and comical looking antics in nailing the shot....

Although generally regarded as a device to disguise or hide, perhaps the mask also holds the less obvious and contradictory power to reveal and unveil....

As Oscar Wild said: "Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he shall speak the truth"
