The mask occupies a very unique place throughout Mexican culture. It is not limited solely to festivities and religious celebrations. As I worked in my photographic project on the wrestlers in Mexico, this became increasingly evident. They are like the point of the arrow that leads us to understand the diversity of myths surrounding the mask. In fact, it is the wrestlers in Mexico that have brought the symbol of the mask into modernity within our culture. From a practical point of view, there is no distance anymore between its daily use and its most profound references.
Topeng merupakan upakan objek budaya Mexico xico yang amat unik dan tidak ak terhad kepada penggunaan ggunaan keagamaan dan adat istiadat sahaja. aja. Kenyataan ini semakin ketara semakin hari ri saya menyusuri projek fotografi bersama ahlili gusti Mexico. Mereka seakan kan anak panah atau petunjuk bagi kita memahami kepelbagaian mitos disebalik topeng tersebut. Ternyata sekali bagaimana ahli gusti Mexico inilah yang bertanggungjawab bagi kesinambungan budaya dan simbolisme topeng dalam era moden ini. Dari sudut praktikal, sememangnya tiada jurang lagi di antara kegunaan harian dan keistimewaan perwakilan budayanya.
