đď¸ Theme: What We Show vs. What We Hide
đ InspirePoint Reward: +50 Points for Participating
This month, weâre diving beneath the surface. âMasks We Wearâ is about exploring identityâhow we present ourselves to the world versus what we keep hidden. Everyone wears a mask sometimes, whether itâs confidence, calm, humor, or mystery. What does yours look like?
You can take this theme literally or metaphorically:
đ Create a physical or digital mask that represents a hidden side of yourself
đ Write a poem or journal entry about whatâs behind your âeverydayâ face
đ¨ Paint or sculpt a portrait showing contrast between outer appearance and inner truth
đ¸ Photograph or design a symbolic scene that captures transformation or disguise
đĄ Mix reality and imaginationâwhat if your mask had a life of its own?
đ§ Why âMasks We Wearâ?
October invites us to explore whatâs beneath the surfaceâthe unseen emotions, dreams, and parts of ourselves that donât always make it into the daylight. This challenge is about authenticity, vulnerability, and creative courage. When we take off our masksâor consciously design themâwe discover who we really are.
đ Your Creative Challenge:
Create something that expresses your âmask.â It could be playful, mysterious, or deeply personal. Tell a story through your art, design, words, or medium of choice, and share your piece in the Project Gallery with a short note about what inspired your mask.
