Estian Gericke - Female Head

This sculpture focuses on the mysterious side to women but also how wonderful beings they are. Their emotional, nurturing-quality and the fact that they can instinctively care for a new-born. The sculpture shows the female with a very subtle expression on her face that also looks relaxed. It is almost similar to the smile of the Mona Lisa which appears as if she is smiling and it slowly fades away the longer one looks. The eyes of the sculpture are closed to keep the viewer’s attention focused on the facial expression of the female and allows one to add his or her own interpretation of the work.
