For Lena Guberman, a recent series of ceramic sculptures titled INS_IDE_OUT delves into her childhood experiences with social anxiety and the uncertainties of the unknown.
The mask provides a protective shell and presents a 'perfect' appearance to the outside world but fails to stop the fears and emotions from bursting out.
Each piece is modeled on the same melancholy face of a young girl, with painted and sculpted elements that range from spikes to arrows to a dead bird.
Emotionally evocative and somewhat unsettling, her sculptures explore the spectrum of feelings associated with anxiety.
