Wayne

Part of the Reflection Series.

Wayne is a walking story, a character who carries his past proudly on his skin. Every tattoo marks a moment, a memory, or a belief, etched in ink as both reminder and declaration.

Wayne reflects through expression, turning his body into a canvas of lived experience. His tattoos are more than decoration, they are milestones of passion, resilience, and identity, woven together to tell the story of who he is. Confident, open-hearted and grounded in his journey, Wayne shows how reflection can become something you wear with pride.

Crafted from clay with a wire armature and finished with fabric clothing, his figure embodies strength and individuality. Subtle details in form and design echo his character’s dedication to self-expression and the lasting impact of memory.
