For much of Kontravoid's existence, the artist's face has remained a coy mystery. Typically, he dons a mask reminiscent of Greek tragedy—expressionless, a white plaster shroud enveloping the soul. This mask serves both as a shield for detachment and a sanctuary for concealment. Reminiscent of the classic death mask L'Inconnue de la Seine, cast of a young girl who had drowned in France in the 1880s, its serene yet enigmatic frozen features provided a barrier of secrets and riddles.
