— many faces, gary hembree.

I have always been fascinated by faces.

Each one is never the same, not even those of twins – there is always a mismatched eyebrow, a different slant to the jaw, a mole in a strange place, an individuality to the way lips curl as one smiles. No face is ever the same, and no face should be.

Symmetry is such a boring art form. My art, on the other hand, deals in the asymmetry, in the slanted and the angled, in circles and triangles instead of plain lines. My art is of the faces. If I am a sculptor, which I somewhat am, then faces are my works of art, my precious clay – I take my chisel and I work away.

Everyone asks me to reshape their faces, and I always ask if they can handle being dissembled first. Because sometimes, the best works are the deconstructed ones, art being pulled apart and then remade into something better, something worthier. And the best art is always granted through pain, no?

I have a lovely museum at home, full of all the faces I have collected and refashioned into masks. I wear a new one each day, and no, they are not made of human skin – I am not sick – but clay, porcelain, marble, you name it. Such lovely masks, all mine to wear, and I haven’t stopped collecting.

And I’ll collect until I have every face imaginable in the world.
