September 20 20062006-09-20A pale unfired clay bust of a man's head rests on a weathered wooden plinth in a plain studio. The sculpted face has closed eyes, a broad nose and a set mouth, with the hair textured in ridged strokes. Two modelling tools lie on the plinth beside the head. Behind it, a framed photograph shows a smiling figure in dark clothing with layered beaded necklaces and a red-orange cloth, but that picture is a depiction, not a physical person. The bust is a sculpted depiction, not a living subject, and no people are physically present in the scene.2013-06-26May 18 20142014-05-18May 18 20142014-05-18A photograph of an unfinished clay bust being sculpted on a weathered wooden block against a whitewashed wall.
