Transparent Carnival Mask on Lacquered Shelf

by Rhonda French

Rich amber sunset light floods a dark room, illuminating dust motes suspended in vertical shafts. A carnival mask rests on a glossy lacquered shelf near Salvador. The mask's surface is solid, painted in deep crimson with gold filigree, yet its form is entirely transparent like colored glass. You see the wood grain of the shelf directly through the mask's cheekbones and forehead. The transparency distorts the view of the shelf behind it, bending the light without losing the mask's original crimson tint. Sharp shadows stretch across the table, creating a charged, late-night tension. One reflection of the crimson rim glows against the dark wood edge.
