Material : Composed Metal Software : Cinema4D, Redshift, Adobe Physical model : 3D Print
The mask hides the identity and liberates the persona. Within the wearer bears a yearning for inner expression in the purest and most flamboyant of forms. The young duke at day transforms himself into the Crimson Duchess of Flame at night. She enters occasional galas, and soirees with her identity concealed, enjoying music and dances while dressing in glamorous outfits that she has designed. Many have wondered who this mysterious fair lady was. However, in the hearts of the few who have witnessed her beauty, they will always remember her as the Crimson Duchess of Flame.
