Artist Spotlight: For Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist Anastasia Pilepchuk (@nastia_pilepchuk), mask making begins with the need to give form to something internal, untranslatable into language. A ritual of slowing down, following texture, letting form build itself through process. Drawing from the body, natural patterns, and material repetition, her work sits
at the threshold between object and transformation.

Fast forward 1000 years and she says, “Maybe the face itself becomes a kind of interface,
something that shifts depending on context. In a way, closer to what masks already are.”
