Abstract
Crowd representation has been explored by painters and sculptors around the world. These artists and others yet to explore crowd are fascinated with number, movement and emotions of which I am no exception. With perception as the background study to the research; crowd representation not only was a stimulus in the execution of it, but raised discussion on preconception, misconception and prejudice in our society. The main project was successfully executed through the use of stones and other found objects which had illusions of human faces. The main project is in two parts: a relief and in a round sculpture giving some reminiscence of the deformed in society who are part of crowds. Amusing viewers has been the by product of the terracotta heads in the representation of the crowd.
