When I started planning this, I knew I wanted my sculpture to be wearable. Unfortunately, attempts and broaches and hats and everything else failed. In the end, I settled on this masquerade mask.

Demeter killed off everything that grew on earth, but I also wanted to show the raw life that was still there, and the ability to produce at a single word from Demeter.
