Description	Lim Soo Ngee, a Singaporean sculptor, captures “alternative identities” of contemporary people through wooden sculptures that poetically portray various figures. The artist recreates contemporary people who are subordinated to the flow of time in a state of torpor by putting on masks during COVID-19, or notes the fact that many people wear different “masks” whenever they face various situations in their lives. The facial expressions and gestures of those figures depicted in various ways remind us that life is full of humor, inconsistency, irony, romance, and irrationality.

Masks are used by people to hide themselves while acting as others, and are also used to express something inside the wearer, perhaps a personality that they do not usually reveal or something related to spirituality and faith. The MassKara Festival and the Moryonan, representative festivals of the Philippines, are large-scale street events to celebrate the nation’s history and culture, and to gather local society together. The MassKara Festival, which features a parade full of colorful masks and costumes, reveals the joys and passions of Bacolod citizens. On the other hand, the Moryonan Lenten rites shows the cultural heritage of Marinduque inhabitants who creatively follow Catholic tradition.
