Le maschere: tra cultura, psiche e identità | Giovanni Martinotti | TEDxLUMSA
Un viaggio attraverso le culture del mondo — dalla Papua Nuova Guinea al Giappone — per esplorare il significato simbolico e sociale delle maschere. Un confronto tra tradizioni antiche e società post-moderna, dove le maschere non sono più solo oggetti rituali, ma diventano espressioni di disagio psichico, adattamento sociale e identità frammentate. Un invito a riflettere su ciò che mostriamo agli altri, su ciò che nascondiamo e su ciò che, forse, non conosciamo nemmeno di noi stessi.
