FKA twigs Made Masks Out of Discarded Fashion & They Are Works of Art
These might not be the types of face masks you want to be wearing right now, but FKA twigs helped create some “masks” that are works of art.
The 32-year-old singer and AVANTgarden, in partnership with Dazed Beauty, collaborated with makeup and mixed media artist Lyle XOX to create some incredible facial sculptures.
FKA twigs modeled the sculptures for Issue 7 of her digizine AVANTgarden titled Beauty of the Discarded. All of the sculptures were made using found objects.
“Being able to collaborate is one of the great joys of being a human. If I didn’t think that before all of this, boy do I feel it now, only a month into having ideas and having nowhere to put them that feels concrete is quite painful,” FKA twigs said in a statement. “This project is about the beauty of the discarded. It’s about how often we as humans get it wrong. We’ve discarded how we’re supposed to live as humans and now we’re realizing there are more simple ways to exist and that the closer we are to the earth the closer we are to the truth.”
