Russian artist Seryozha Parshakov is redefining creativity with his captivating masks, which seamlessly blend traditional influences with contemporary innovation. Inspired by the Russian avant-garde and modern culture, Parshakov’s masks are more than just art—they’re powerful symbols of identity and transformation.
“I see the mask as a canvas displaying a reflection of humanity’s thinking: the context of time, beliefs, and everyday life. Through it, you can tell many stories and make others think about different things. Just as we can think of a person by looking at facial features, eyes, skin. Tactility is just as important; it adds layers to the story. I think this layering has a certain appeal for the eyes,” he said.
