Ben Jackel: Discarded Mask Series
In his ceramic and wooden sculptures, artist Ben Jackel commonly addresses the intersections of warfare, disasters and American politics. In response to the pandemic, Jackel has created a series of face masks as a “permanent reminder of the loss and suffering that occurred during this time.” Individually sculpted from porcelain, the masks are available for purchase online, with 50% of proceeds benefiting the COVID-19 LA County Response Fund.
