The Masks We Graduated In

Five -Class of 2020 – A generation steps into the world wearing the strange, honest faces of a year that reshaped who they were becoming.

In a year that fractured the ordinary face of the world, these visages appear not as distortions, but as revelations. Each altered expression carries the quiet humor and the unspoken grief of a class that crossed a threshold no one prepared them for. The grotesque becomes tender here, and the absurd becomes a mirror: how identity stretches when certainty collapses. Beneath the warped contours and playful exaggerations lives a generation learning, far too early, that becoming is rarely symmetrical. This is not a record of what they looked like, but of what it felt like to come of age while reality itself was bending.
