Allostatic Overload

"Allostatic Overload"
This haunting portrayal of a distressed, worn doll embodies the invisible toll of chronic stress—where survival mechanisms falter and the façade begins to crack. Tense, tender, and teetering on the edge, the piece gives form to the inner unraveling we often hide. For collectors who seek beauty in vulnerability and truth in distortion, this is a raw, resonant fragment of the human condition.,
