Theater Masks as Living Sculpture

Theater Masks are living sculpture. Technically, this means the planes of the sculpture have been juxtaposed to create the illusion of the mask changing form and expression as it moves through space. A well made mask will look different on each actor who wears it. A good theater mask will dictate to the actor the character's life force, rhythm, and particular outlook on life.

The Artist & The Studio

Jonathan Becker is a mask maker, teaching artist and performer. He began sculpting masks in 1986 while a student in Paris, France. Jonathan has created hundreds of masks for theatre companies, producing organizations, and training programs throughout Europe, Canada, and the United States. His masks are currently touring throughout the world.

The Material

These theatre masks are made out of neoprene, an industrial latex compound that cures to a slightly flexible state. The mask holds its form like a leather mask and is equivalent in weight. The advantage to a neoprene mask is that it is an affordable way of achieving an incredibly durable and professional product. Because of their durability, neoprene masks are ideal for classroom use and touring.
