Collateral Humanity is a haunting portrayal of the psychological wreckage left in the shadows of war. With wide, tormented eyes and a mouth frozen in a scream, the figure embodies the silent agony of those whose pain is not counted among the official casualties. The markings on the skin resemble both wounds and memories etchings of violence, displacement, and loss. Set against a deceptively bright field, this piece confronts the viewer with the reality that in every war, beyond the fallen soldiers and broken cities, lies a deeper cost: the erosion of the human spirit.
