About Us
Where Realism Meets Obsession.
At Metamorphose Masks, we don’t just create silicone masks — we create hyper-realistic identities. Whether you're a serious collector, a horror enthusiast, or a performer looking for the ultimate transformation, our masks are built to turn heads, drop jaws, and defy belief.
Founded in 2013 in Ottawa, Canada, our team brings together over 20 years of experience in the FX, mask, and special effects industry. From the beginning, our mission has been clear: to craft the most realistic, innovative, and expressive silicone masks on the market — and to push the boundaries of what’s possible with every sculpt and paint job.

Meet the Artist: Yves Gravelle
Founder. Sculptor. Mad Scientist of Faces.
Metamorphose Masks was founded by Yves Gravelle, a self-taught artist with a passion for character creation, realism, and transformation. With over a decade of experience in silicone mask design and special effects, Yves has become known for his ability to bring ultra-realistic skin tones, textures, and expressions to life — all while pushing the boundaries of what silicone masks can achieve.
Yves combines traditional sculpture techniques with modern materials and obsessive attention to detail. Each mask he creates is more than just a product — it’s a piece of performance-ready art meant to fool the eye and thrill the imagination.
When he's not in the studio experimenting with new paint layering techniques or designing anatomical features, Yves is often collaborating with filmmakers, haunted attractions, and fellow creators to make their visions a reality.
