This is the first of a series on masks inspired by the culture and rituals from different countries where Jean-Claude has lived or travelled.
Ce tableau est le premier d'une série sur les masques. Pour cette série, Jean-Claude tire son inspiration de la culture et des rituels de plusieurs pays où il a vécu ou voyagé.
