What Is the Left Angle Cross of Masks?
In the Left Angle Cross of Masks, the word “Masks” refers to the personas, roles, or identities you adopt to navigate different social or collective dynamics.
But here’s the real meaning behind it:
Masks aren’t about hiding who you are — they’re how you deliver who you are.
