Some of you may know that I lived in Switzerland and it had a big effect on my life. One of my most memorable experiences was going on a road journey with friends to Lotschental to meet a third generation mask carver.
It’s funny as over the years the masks have become more sophisticated due to the demand for more Hollywood looking monsters but they leave me cold, it is the older more primitive looking masks that get me, they have more of a magic about them and feel as if they come from a later age.
