Cell Masks

I made new show pieces, gold  and silver cell masks for my fashion show at Hotel Chelsea.
At the back stage of the fashion show, Stephen directed short fashion film of these masks.
It is mysterious story about under ground mask party.
This short films reminds me the movie "Eyes Wide Shut".
