Celina Frisson’s installation features four identically shaped masks made from a variety of found materials, such as wireframe, upcycled fabric, and beads. Each mask represents a season and a menstrual phase: winter/menstrual, spring/follicular, summer/ovulation, and fall/luteal. These masks symbolize the human connection to nature and how each season and cycle flows through the individual.
“They ask us for endless summer, endless bloom. The moon should always be full. And then, chronically terrified of the dark, the feminine, the wild, the winter, and the death. There is no cycle without full circle. I am the fractal of her. I am all four seasons. I am the four phases of my menstrual cycle.”
