The core idea of the work came from a picture of a mask I saw in a magazine, very similar to the character mask known as painted face in Peking (Beijing) opera. I was amazed that despite the rigidity of each line and angle carved into the mask, the impression was of a well-contoured and expressive face. Based on this observation I created two roles. Both are very constrained and rigid but are interdependent. That is, the relationship between the two roles is like the carver's knife, creating contours which bring life and energy out through this rigidity.' This work is a chamber ensemble version of NABRIPAMO.
