Head Zero

In the portfolio '(Im)Possible faces' this sculpture is called 'Andromache'.
 

This sculpture can be seen as a transitional figure between the categories I use for my sculptural work. Without the interpretation of the figure by specific naming, this is a work in which the coherence between interior space and external space is emphasized in particular, as well as the formal approach to the human head from a mainly compositional point of view, instead of a more narrative angle. Because of the double position in my work, I gave it the title 'Head Zero' within the category 'Head-Lines'. Finally it is the origin of a new type within the framework of my sculpture.

Ancestors 

A child am I 

of many parents, 

stacking predecessors 

in and on my head, 

carrying them along, 

as penates, fetish,
burden sometimes, 

in hope of reluctant 
 blessing. 

Most of them are 
 strange and far to me. 
 I am going back in mind, 
 cherishing signs, crossing
 borders, asking birds, 
 defeating shadows, raging  
 emptiness beyond, to an 
 uncertain destination.
