Although the Dominic Wilcox mask looks like something a child can whip up if he ever got his hands on his mother's aluminum roll, it's not as easy as it looks. Not only is tinfoil a fickle material that rips at the slightest touch, but creating such a self-portrait would also require talent and patience that only a true artist could muster.
Constructed using an old plaster mold of when this British designer was merely 21 years old, the Dominic Wilcox mask is gracefully stunning to behold.
