Ceramics. Unfinished.
This ceramic headpiece is inspired by the skeletal structures of reptiles and the streamlined anatomy of sharks, merging terrestrial and marine references into a single hybrid form. The surface echoes the segmentation of bone, while its overall silhouette suggests the fluid aggression of a shark moving through water.
Hand-built in clay, the piece balances between armor and fossil—something that could be worn, yet also something unearthed from deep time. The reptilian references introduce a sense of archaic survival, while the shark-like qualities evoke speed, instinct, and predation.
Resting on the head, it transforms the wearer into a creature that feels both ancient and speculative, as if evolution had taken a different path. The work explores the boundaries between protection and transformation, body and creature, past and imagined future, where anatomy becomes a language of metamorphosis rather than classification.
