Paper Wig
/pay per wyg/noun
1. A wig, headpiece, or hairstyle-like sculpture made primarily from paper. 2. A temporary or performative identity layer: something a person, character, brand, or idea wears to be seen differently. 3. A fragile but expressive disguise that makes its artificiality obvious instead of hiding it.
“1. “She was not trying to become someone else. She was wearing a Paper Wig so everyone could see the performance.” 2. “Donna’s Paper Wig turned crossword pages into a sculptural crown that looked impossible, funny, beautiful, and completely alive.””
