very creepy but reallllllllyyyyy interesting im not sure if i would want to participate in some of these ceremonies! great for doing research or just fun
Yes, some of the masks are creepy. I suppose that’s good if the mask is intended to banish fear, or to yield off evil spirits. You can learn so much about a culture from the masks they made and how they were used.
The masks are very cool,though some are really weird but amazing.
Your blog is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From-Matt
Thanks, Matt! I agree. Some of the masks are strange. That’s what’s so interesting about studying masks and studying different cultures. We learn how different we all are, and at the same time, how we are all the same!
Jay here,
I think your blog is very cool and smooth. I love the pictures of the masks. They are just so… rugged! They are so interesting and intreaging. Great for learning and studing, but not so good for using… FREAKY!!! Thanks, seeyah!
Jay
I can’t wait to see the mask you create! I wonder if your mask will be “freaky” too?
That one carnival mask to scare kids was just horrible!!! Who would do that?!?!
yes, some of the masks are strange. That’s what’s so interesting about studying masks and studying different cultures. we can learn so much about a culture from the masks they made and how they were used.
