Mass/Clay Sculpture/Game Piece

This sculpture portrays an empty head, symbolizing the mind’s void, yet brimming with nostalgic childhood memories. Inside, vivid items like pencils, crayons, paintbrushes, and a small stuffed dog emerge, evoking the innocence and creativity of youth. The face of the head is concealed by a grey mask, adorned with three vertical blue stripes—an homage to the artist’s self-portrait. The piece explores themes of identity, memory, and the impact of childhood experiences on personal growth.
