Masks Behind Glass, gouache and colored pencil on paper, 15”x12,” by Valerie DeMeerleer.

Inspired by the works and themes of the expressionist period, Masks Behind Glass makes similar comments to German Expressionism about the inner feelings of alienation and anxiety in a world marked with collective trauma. The piece uses abstraction of the human form and depth, and is meant to place the viewer in a claustrophobic environment to create unease.
