Faces of Filipino Folklore

A Halloween mask exhibition by Crossroads. Our studio, along with the tenants of Crossroads, were tapped to create masks that reflects Filipino folklore.
 
We wanted to make something that every Filipino kid could recognize, so we chose to create a chicken mask (tales of sarimanok) 🐓 and pineapple mask 🍍 (the legend of pineapple).

We gathered available materials around the studio, foam sheet and paper, and started to build the masks. We wanted to keep the innocence of the stories so we decided to keep the materials as is and not add any color on it.
