There are many campaigns and adverts regarding domestic abuse. This is a world wide issue we often miss as the victims are ofthen too affraid to speak out.
I have chosen to create a concept to reflect public blindness to those who are abused.
These cases are often reflected within soaps and adverts we see on television especially.
This design uses the idea of living behind a mask. Within this I want to create a mask, as a direct copy of the models face, this will then be coloured appropriately to create a natural, healthy appearance.

About my Character:
In context, this character will be used in advertisement of a short length of footage. Within this the models face will be made up to look beaten and run down. The mask itself will be made from a life cast of the model and be made up to look healthy. This will then be recieved as a gift in a box from her abusive partner. This mask will be wearable as footage of her oushing the mask up to her face will create a powerful message to promote awareness of what goes on behind closed doors.
