Saul Steinberg was a cartoonist for the New Yorker magazine, who used paper bag mask-making to explore issues of identity. In 1958, he started making paper bag masks that turned his subjects into caricatures of the time: wealthy women, sassy secretaries, confident businessmen, etc. Inge Morath, a well known photographer, shot Steinberg and his friends wearing his paper bag masks. This series pays tribute to Saul Steinberg by using paper bag masks to comment on female identity. A Dutch artist-cum-photography model, Emma Helena, was invited to create paper bag masks that would reflect her identity. This is drawn from a paper-bag mask series, with the mask drawn by Emma. The series is entitled "Prickles". The full series can be found at: https://www.stevetaborphotos.com/prickles.html
