ART of emotion

What do you see from the masks bellow?


Happy Face
Sad Face
Lonely Face
Lovely Face


A single human face can have thousand of facial expressions and we can change it as frequently as we want. One second someone can enter a room smiling while on the other second the same person might leave the room crying. It is as if everybody is wearing a mask, a mask that can hide us from others, a mask that can protect our privacy, and a mask that can influence others masks. That is why our expressions and how others look at our expressions are very important because our face communicates to others about ones feeling. Humans are social, we cry with those who cry, we laugh with those who laugh, and we interact with those who interact. So is our face social on its own, when we see danger our face pales, when we see happiness our face opens, and when we feel love our face flush. One may think a pokerface does not express anything, but pokerface is a best way to tell others how 'I will not tell what I know.' So after all there is not a facial expression that doesn't communicate.
So what is my point? Our face is ART.

  1. Strong analysis, and an impressive subject. I would have never stopped and think how our different daily life emotions are simple "masks", but they truly are. As I right this, I may have started with an annoyed face, continued with an intellectual expression, and finished with a smile. Three different masks in five minutes. And as you write at the end: these facial expressions that I just did are art.
