Original artwork description:
This sculpture is born from discarded materials — an abandoned doll, plaster fragments and mixed media fused together like a wound that never healed. “Alienation” speaks about the quiet violence of being present yet unseen. The figure carries the texture of exile: emotionally, socially, and spiritually. What once was a toy of comfort is now transformed into a relic of discomfort — a body that remembers touch but no longer belongs to any home.
Materials used:
Found doll, plaster, mixed media, adhesive, hand-painted surface treatment, reclaimed materials
