A series of four wearable handmade papier mâché masks called Bifacce. The series is inspired by the classical Japanese theatrical form Noh, as well as the Italian theatre style of Commedia dell'Arte. Interestingly, the two theatres arose around the same historical period. In the Incontro Teatrale series, Sergio tried to find physiognomic similarities between their various characters.
