Through the combination of anthropomorphic imagery and hyperrealist detail, the contemporary mixed-media sculpture Shell Core explores the idea that every person is a precious pearl, often concealed within their own shell. The work is dedicated to the image of a whole and resilient person who is grounded in a strong inner core, whose strength and integrity remain intact beneath the surface.
