A contemporary sculpture depicting a stylized skull made of papier-mâché and paper collage.


The surface is constructed with fragments of pages, notes, and sheets of paper with written messages incorporated into the material itself during the creative process. Words and thoughts thus become an integral part of the sculpture's structure.The large theatrical collar is made from folded and painted book pages, creating a scenographic effect reminiscent of the costumes of clowns or court jesters.


The heart-shaped eyes, painted with dark pigments and bright inserts, introduce an ironic contrast between love and death, transforming the traditional memento mori into an object suspended between theater, memory, and irony.


The sculpture is mounted on a metal base with a brushed finish and a vertical support.


Unique piece.


Materials: papier-mâché, paper collage, book pages, pigments, and metal base.
