this is a work in progress photo of a life size, figurative clay sculpture. It is standing on a cart with wheels and has clay supports sitting on the toes going up to the knees. There are seams in the sculpture where it has been separated into pieces that sit on top of each other. One seam is just above the belly button and the other is just under the chin. The figure is nude, standing in a relaxed posture with hands crossed in front of their body. The figure has visible surgical scars on the chest from the removal of breasts. The genitalia of the figure isn't unclear. The hands and feet are simplified, without defined fingers or toes. The figure has short hair and thick eyebrows and its expression is tranquil to neutral. There are photos on the wall behind the sculpture and evidence of tables in the foreground and background of the photo.
