In the week leading up to the Arte Publiku festival in Dili, I ran a mask and stilt making two day workshop at Arte Moris free art school. We used hot glue guns and whatever scraps of timber we could find around the school to build our masks over the two days. I had a lovely crew of young artists who had travelled as far as Los Paulos and here are some of the masks they made with me. I must admit that making art to death metal in the tropics was definitely one of my Timor Leste highlights.
