Ceramic Abstract Sculpture - "Masking"

Masking is a striking ceramic abstract bust that draws inspiration from the timeless elegance of ancient sculptural traditions, reimagined through a contemporary lens. This evocative piece explores the concept of concealment, using the metaphor of a mask to examine the layers of identity we construct and the personas we adopt. 

The sculpture’s fragmented surface, marked by deliberate cracks and textures, speaks to the fragility of these outward facades. Yet, within these fractures, delicate seams of gold emerge, illuminating the cracks and suggesting the resilience and beauty of our authentic selves. The use of gold, reminiscent of the Japanese art of kintsugi, transforms the brokenness into a symbol of strength and renewal, celebrating the imperfections that make us whole.
