This sculpted pebble portrait embodies a dialogue between the crafted and the natural, presenting central features that anchor the viewer’s gaze amid a multitude of stones. The artfully sculpted nose and mouth serve as a testament to human creativity, while the encircling pebbles remind us of the beauty of untamed nature. This image becomes a viewer-interactive artwork, where the implied facial form and the collaborative approach between the artist’s intention and nature’s contribution create a piece that is perpetually completed anew with each observation.
