Each work of art has a legend, and is designed and completely handmade by myself just as my ancestors have made them for centuries. Each feather and every brushstroke is placed with passion and an extreme admiration for my forefathers, the 'First Americans'. I am affiliated with the Cherokee Archives of America, National American Indian Enrollment Agency, and the National Association of Fine Artists. "

Quite litterally: Singing masks. Composer and maskmaker just go take a look! This is fabulous. "Much of the power and impact of Lowrey's work comes from the combination of archetypal material (in the appearance of the masks, gestures, and the sounds of water, percussion, and voice) and the collective participation of the audience. The pieces drew the listeners into various modes of parrticipation in a structurally strong and rightly intuitive flow of events. In that envelope of dreamtime, we listeners experienced a collective deep consciousness. This is music that transforms and heals."

Lucrecia Novoa studied Fine Arts in University of Chile and the Massachusetts College of Arts In 1996, Lucrecia attended the Art of the Mask course offered by Eric Bornstein. This was a turning point in her career. Under Eric's patient guidance, she learned not only techniques of mask masking but also how to mold gestures and expressions into the masks. In the process of creating them, Lucrecia was forced to look at her self in the mirror constantly. What she found was the recollection of past anxieties, frustrations and anger. That's why her first masks were very dark

The ancient shamanic rite of mask-making is a powerful healing ritual to awaken to archetypal energies and rebalance energies. It is a process of going into a quiet meditative state to call upon the unconscious forces to surface. The image is "dreamed" into the mask as it is molded to one's face. Then through the art of designing the mask, the energies surface in the conscious mind enabling you to work with them in your life and awaken you to deeper and higher states of awareness. I am available to do individual one-on-one mask-making healings or mask-making workshops.

Each character has a mask, or persona, whether they have a physical constructed mask on their face or not. For example, the lovers' masks are the painted faces of the actors. A mask has no past, it lives in the present. They are not effected by the events on stage. In other words, they never change. An actor's hands never touch the mask. Nothing can interfere with the gaze, the facial expression, of the mask. The mask is the center of the character. It drives the character and leads all action.
