A figure crouched and curled into itself in pale clay, head bowed onto folded arms and drawn-up knees, seated on a rough rock block. Deep parallel ridges are scored down the curve of its back.

War

Materials
Air-dry clay

War steals long before it kills.

Inspired by those whose lives were shaped by war and hunger — some scars never leave, even after peace returns.

Hunger carved this figure; war carved the rest.

Close view of the crouched figure from the side: the long curve of the back, the folded arm, and the ridges cut into the shoulder catching the light.
The arm and drawn-up knee in raking light, with the coarse broken surface of the rock base below.
The crouched figure seen from above and behind — the arch of the back, the bowed head, and the ridged texture across the shoulders.
The whole crouched figure from a second angle, more upright, showing the head resting against the arms and the block it sits on.
