Face to Face stands as a testament to Robert Aliaj Dragot's daring exploration of self, embodied in a haunting mask, meticulously crafted in the likeness of the artist's face with a frozen expression in a macabre vista of death that confronts the viewer with raw emotions.
Through this immersive experience, Robert Aliaj Dragot creates a powerful dialogue between observer and observed, blurring the boundaries between subject and object, self and other.
