Copper
Face Mask (1990) |
|
METALS
- FABRICATION |
| |
The
class assignment was to make a mask that reflected from an ancient
civilization or culture. A tribal mask worn for spiritual cere-monial
rituals was my choice.
The mask is contructed from several pieces of metal. Items needed
for this project: 1 copper square, copper wire, leather straps,
2 thin copper strips, and pieces of soldering metal. |

I
decided to create a mask based off the face of a college boyfriend.
He
had strong facial features perfect for a fearsome and intense
mask.
First I drew an outline of his face onto the copper square.
Next I cut out the pieces Ineeded from the copper square. Then
I drilled 2 holes big enough to pass a thin serrated blade through,
reclamped it in handsaw, and proceeded to cut out the eyes of
the mask. Apply plenty of heat with hand torch then |
