ProfileTheatre Of Masks is my creative practice, specialising in the design and creation of theatrical masks, props, costumes, and scenic elements for small-scale theatres, community events, schools, and carnivals. With a background in art and art history, training in photography and filmmaking, and hands-on experience in theatre productions, I create handcrafted, original pieces that support and enhance the storytelling on stage. My work includes silicone, latex, and Venetian masks, expanding foam props, costumes, and custom backdrops made from fabric or wood. I work closely with directors, performers, and creative teams to develop bespoke designs that align with each production’s artistic vision. Flexibility in style, materials, and approach is at the heart of my practice — every piece is designed to be unique rather than replicated. Alongside physical creation, I offer photography and videography services to help theatre companies and organisations document and promote their work. Through this combination of craft and visual storytelling, my aim is to support theatrical creativity both on and off the stage.
