<center><h4>I cannot really fully explain this drawing - there are many things that influenced it, and some are drawn from my subconscious.

This in turn makes me think of <center> [Claes Oldenburg's Store Days and Ray Gun Theater](https://www.moma.org/explore/inside_out/2013/06/26/revisiting-oldenburgs-the-store/) </center> but that is not the point of my drawing. I picked the title (as I do most times after the work is finished) based on my own recollection and knowledge of something that is deeply ankered in my Austrian roots: 'The name Mummenschanz [ˈmʊmənˌʃanʦ] is German for "mummery," or a play involving mummers. Mummer is an Early Modern English term for a mime artist.' (quote from Wikipedia, see links below). Maybe the influence for this drawing comes also from the <center> [Austrian Perchten Pagan Tradition](http://www.tourmycountry.com/austria/perchtenpagancustom1.htm). </center> <b>Who or what is behind that mask?</b> <h4>Traditionally, Frau Perchta is believed to be a god-like creature half man, half woman, but usually displayed in its female manifestation. </h4> <center><b>Related Links:</b><br> <b>[MUMMENSCHANZ - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummenschanz)</b><br> <b>[MUMMERS PLAY - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummers_play)</b> </center> </blockquote> <center> *** [MUMMENSCHANZ print on Pixels.com](https://otto-rapp.pixels.com/featured/mummenschanz-otto-rapp.html) 👹 [MUMMENSCHANZ on my website](https://www.artofthemystic.com/mummenschanz.html) </center> *** <center><img src="http://www.artofthemystic.com/uploads/2/5/9/7/2597378/00-see-all-my-pictures-arrow_orig.jpg"> <a href="http://steemit.pics/IMGManager/view.php?username=thermoplastic"><img src="http://www.artofthemystic.com/uploads/2/5/9/7/2597378/00-see-all-my-pictures-image_orig.jpg"></a></center> <center><img src="http://2597378-332654215428368134.preview.editmysite.com/uploads/2/5/9/7/2597378/steemit-text_1_orig.jpg"></center>
