This mask guards the threshold with a hollow mouth that seems to demand a vow.
Its surface bears the traces of pressure and incision, where body and matter collide to inscribe memory into metal.
The features emerge and recede with the shifting light, never fixed, always uncertain, like an oracle that reveals only through absence.
The open mouth functions less as speech than as passage, an aperture between truth and concealment, between gesture and silence: it stands as a sentinel of the unseen.
