EXHIBITION: MYTHS & MASKS
Enter into the realm of MYTHS & MASKS, where ancient spirits gather in communion to share their prophecies, warnings and wisdom. Rooted in cultures as old as mankind, these mediators continue to keep their watch and act as a link between the invisible and visible worlds.
Inspired and guided by the whispers of these African ancestors, Miguel Hyacinthe collects various materials, transforming and repurposing old, everyday objects to create astonishing and captivating masks that bring sacred spirits back to life.
For the first time, these masks emerge from the shadows and are presented to the public. The hidden space is proud to reveal their faces and messages in an exhibition that brings together matter, tribal mythology and the mystery of creation itself.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
