"The work Maske (Self-Portrait) negates a traditional understanding of the artist who creates from himself and at the same time counteracts the classical portrait: instead of his own head, a dust mask, a classical work object of the artist, is presented. Only inside the mask does the impression of his mouth reveal part of his silhouette. The artist only shows himself through his absence and steps back behind his work".
