Urban Camo Ski Mask Project by Perishable Rush, 9 May 2015

Ski masks to Perishable Rush are a symbol of the current struggles around the globe. The news is dominated by men wearing ski masks whether it be terrorists or the special forces battling them. An exhibition at GO Gallery, from May 9th.

These artworks are built from pieces of paper sourced mostly from the streets of Amsterdam. These bits and pieces are mixed up with torn screen prints, magazines and comic books. They are glued in the shape of a ski mask forming an urban camouflage pattern. The eyes and mouthpieces are made of laser-etched and or laser-cut photo’s, comics and logo’s. Ski masks to me are a symbol of the current struggles around the globe. The news is dominated by men wearing ski masks whether it be terrorists or the special forces battling them.
