Photos by Kuprat and MadCollector
As with most things pertaining to mimes, jesters, harlequins, clowns, and other related masked characters and costumery, I also have a mad and nearly unhealthy obsession with all things pertaining to Venetian masks, costumes, and carnivals.
I find the artistry and expression of the dramatic and theatrical makeup and dress to be beautiful in an utterly profound manner. Everyone dressed up literally looks like otherworldly beings and I get so excited and entranced when I see these photos, as if the gate to another world is right there waiting to be entered if I just let myself look further into the images and believe…
I’d love to attend the Venetian carnival someday in Italy, and also begin collecting some of my own masks and costumes for fun and reverie.
