Under This Mask, Another Mask

For Claude Cahun fantasy was a valid aspect of self-presentation, and she could be whatever she wanted. The notion that the mask hides a ‘true’ self implies that there is a stable, essential identity foundation, but Claude said “under this mask, another mask – I will never finish lifting up all the faces.” The roles we take on can be discarded and replaced by others, as easily as a mask can be changed.


















“I am in training don't kiss me” (Claude Cahun)
