Noh Mask Collective - A Japanese form of theatre. In putting the mask on, the word kaburu (putting on clothing) is not used. Instead, the words kakeru (to hang) or tsukeru (to attach) is used. In this way, it is implying that the performer is "becoming" the mask, and it's emotions, in order go better express the characters feelings. Essentially one becoming the mask. These are from the 1700's. Available here: http://www.boroistore.com/antiques/noh-mask-collective
