Shakespeare Mas’ is an expression of Carriacou's cultural heritage performed by two players who recite Shakespeare plays in a competitive exchange. These paintings present Shakespeare Mas’ beyond its literary aesthetics. The ‘Masquerade’ is unique to Carriacou, it is popularly admired locally and overseas. Yet, the meaning has not been questioned. This body of work looks deeper into the performance art by deconstructing the Mas’ for hidden meanings that have over the years evaded our mass consciousness.
