This head is called Fallen Pride. It’s about what happens when pride bursts. When your face remains taut, but something collapses inside. It’s that awkward transition between wanting to appear strong and actually being soft.
The gaze is distant, almost arrogant — but if you look closely, you see something else: fragility. The skin is tense, the lips closed, but everything wrinkles from the inside out.
I love that moment. When you’re still trying to keep yourself upright while it’s already crumbling.
Everything I make revolves around imperfection, transience and the beauty of things that no longer fit neatly.
Fallen Pride is an ode to the moment when you stop fighting against falling. And just sink.
