Ms. Arriaga's Student Artwork
The "Mask of Divine Proportion" refers to a concept that connects the principles of divine proportion (also known as the golden ratio or golden mean) with facial aesthetics. The golden ratio is a mathematical ratio of approximately 1.618, which has been observed in various natural and artistic phenomena throughout history.
In the context of the human face, the Mask of Divine Proportion suggests that certain facial proportions that approximate the golden ratio are considered aesthetically pleasing or harmonious. It proposes that dividing the face into specific sections based on the golden ratio can create a balanced and attractive appearance.
