In the painting “Face to Face” by the American artist Michael Parkes, a beautiful, self-confident woman with a challenge looks at the face mask – her second “I”. It is difficult to decide which of them is a good fairy, and who is insidious and evil, because they have become so close and interchangeable.
What kind of soul did the mask hide, what secrets had it kept from prying eyes for many years? In the dialogue that we see in the picture of the master of magical realism there is no conflict – it is a dialogue between two women who understand and approve each other perfectly.
