Limited edition 3 of 12.

In the series, the masks of Venice - a sophisticated form of art and artifice - are layered within photographs of nature. The masks of Venice help to reveal the animating spirits of nature. These photo-collages suggest a liminal space, a fluid moment of crossover between the imagined and the real, the natural and the constructed, the authentic and the fabricated. The Masks of Venice embrace ambiguity and invents an alternative reality.
