The Museum of Masks in Rocca Grimalda is worth a visit to see the several interesting mask and costume exhibits from across Europe.
"Masks in Chains was made for my son's last year in college. It symbolizes that as time passes, people reveal who they truly are, finally deciding not to hide behind their masks."A
Grotesque mask beneath an oval-shaped window at the east end of Birmingham Cathedral.
Birmingham's church of St Philip was designed by Thomas Archer in 1709 and largely finished by 1715 (the tower being completed 1725). The original stone weathered badly so the exterior was entirely refaced in the 1860s (though the tower had to wait till 1958) and a new larger chancel replaced Archer's shallow apse at the east end in 1883-4 (by J.A, Chatwin).
The church was designated as the cathedral of the new Birmingham Diocese in 1905 and is one of the only 'parish church cathedrals' which hasn't undergone any structural alteration since its change in status. It does still possess the feel of a grand city church, rather than a cathedral in the true sense.
The real treasure of this church however is revealed within, as the interior is dominated by four superb stained glass windows by Edward Burne Jones dating from the 1880s (three in the apse, one at the west end). These are perhaps Burne Jones's finest achievements, and intentionally so, for it was in this very church the artist was baptised.

This is a mask I made with a Raku glaze in my Art II class my junior year. I was interested in learning about Hinduism and Buddhism at the time, so I think I was trying to make a mask that resembled Buddha.

Why did people invent masks? Hiding our real selves from the real world? wanting to be bigger or smaller than we actually are? for fun? for terror? for another life we desire but not within reach?
Emotions such as these make us so much richer and more sophisticated than we would be if without them. They also make what we cherish e.g. love in life and collaboration at workplace more difficult because of the associated unpredictabilities and gaps . However our lives otherwise would be no better but robot-like and boring I guess, though the efficiency story will win.
The intelligent knows how and when to wear a mask -- to not hurt others and ourselves more than needed. If someone says he/she never wears a physical mask, I can believe him/her. But if it is about an emotional mask, I will try to believe that notion or otherwise check for a on/off switch button on ITS body somewhere.
I never enjoy wearing a physical mask because I am near-sighted.
I never enjoy wearing an emotional mask either but I know I have to sometimes. If for no other reason, it is better to be one of the intelligent.
