This is an essay about my personal reflection of what motivates me and which methods I use to understand and maintain my motivation as a mask- and wigdesigner.

During December 2021-Feb 2022 I did makeup and wig design at Dalateatern and Örebro Teater for the play Jekyll vs Hyde. What I wanted to explore during production was: "How can I, as a mask designer, create something that is challenging and exciting to watch while requiring as little effort as possible from the actors to whom I am going to hand over the design?"  I wanted to find solutions where I could feel proud of my design while at the same time I wanted to feel confident that what I created could be managed in a simple and sustainable way.
