MORTIS MK2 - SILENCED VER.

A restrained variation of the Dahlia MK2 platform built around containment, structural distortion, and preserved anatomy.

The Dahlia MK2 — Silenced Ver. pairs the layered removable shell construction of the MK2 series with a lower jaw assembly suspended beneath the mask using exposed steel bar supports. The result feels like a medical restraint or preserved specimen held together through crude reconstruction.

Cast in thick Dragon Skin silicone and hand-weathered using layered black cosmetic detailing, each piece develops subtle tonal variation across the surface rather than a flat painted finish. The removable outer shell sits over the silicone base and is secured independently through its own elastic harness system, creating a layered skull-like structure with visible separation between the shell and underlying form.

The lower jaw section is connected to the upper shell through exposed steel support bars, creating a rigid suspended mouth structure that slightly restricts mouth movement during wear. Because of this construction, the

Dahlia MK2 — Chrysalis Ver. is intended more for collectors, photography, film work, and visual performance rather than vocal performance or singing use.

Each piece includes:

• Thick Dragon Skin silicone cast
• Hand-weathered blackened finish
• Removable hard shell mask assembly
• Suspended lower jaw structure
• Exposed steel jaw support bars
• Independent elastic shell harness
• Heavy-duty elastic rear strap system
• Steel Chicago screw and washer hardware

The layered construction creates a skeletal silhouette while maintaining the soft organic movement and fit of silicone beneath the outer shell structure.

No two pieces will weather exactly the same.

Designed as a wearable artifact for collectors drawn toward biological horror, restrained medical aesthetics, reconstructed anatomy, and experimental mask design.
