Some stories are told straight on. Others live in what we hide, protect, or carefully curate for the world. Behind the Mask invites you to explore hidden selves, layered identities, private emotions, and the line between what is revealed and what stays concealed. Selected artworks are gathered into a curated online collection with your name, artwork title, and website link, giving you a polished, shareable feature that lasts beyond results day.
