One of a series of masks, skulls, skullboards , artifacts, icons and god-dollies, made from found objects and presented as 'museum pieces'. Relics of a post-technological society. These masks were found on a beach, and have also been used by actors in outdoor theatre presentations on the themes of waste and pollution of the ocean environment.
