I think these picture are very interesting to make and look at, just keep in mind what the assignment is. Seen that you had several weeks to work on this project and have some time on you hand being indoor for long amount of time these days. I would like to see some actual production on the Mask, not only the picture situation.
this is a my third mask, I made this by knitting I wanted to do something with this period in my life, feeling isolated, alone sometimes this mask is what came out of that feeling the face is not visible, but you also can't see through the mask itself with the photo series I tried to show this feeling of being stuck and wanted to move, go out
the label I created for the shirt: How well does the garment perform when undergoing certain activities? what is its strenghts, and its liabilities? Or just more engagement between wearer and maker? So for the pictures, I thought it would be a nice/fun idea to do the activities as the label commands you to, and scored them afterwards(the ink from the pen is removable when washing).

Masks imply social distancing, withholding information and thus gaining an advantage in social interaction (by deciding not to show one's face while one can see the other person's face). This mask, however, necessitates the cooperation of another person: without the other one cannot hide one's face. This is exacerbated by the fact that only in the right position of the two people, the faces merge in the reflection. Therefore, the two people need to interact closely with each other creating an intimacy that contradicts the function of masks.
