- Description
- The mask is now a symbol worldwide that holds a lot of meaning. Although it is meant to represent protection and care, between the seams lie changes in social interaction, anxious changes, mental health depletion, and so much more. This poem draws a sort of 'zureta' or misalignment between the places that have been abandoned and the faces that have disappeared through the pandemic. In concentrating on the internal landscape of the face and mind, the masks unveil that the real connection of the external landscape lies between the people and their distant but shared mental experience
