This graduate project is based on the research about Beijing Opera masks. Traditional Beijing opera masks can be a symbol of the characters’ personalities by using the color and lone configuration. Through the Beijing Opera masks, the audience can easily get to know about the personality of the characters. In the meantime, each makeup can match on certain kind of people, which may combine both beautiful and ugly elements.

The project indicates the relationship between colors and personalities, by redesigning the Beijing Opera masks in a contemporary method. So the young generation and foreigners can get to know more about this beautiful and meaningful culture of this traditional art. In the show, the audience can collect the postcards may represent their own personality, which creates a close interaction between the project and the audience.
