De Bruyckere’s work as an artist responds to ubiquitous suffering and loneliness by showing us the beauty in our vulnerability. Images of pain and human fragility have moved her to respond with compelling wax and epoxy sculptures that are filled with quiet pathos. De Bruyckere always creates her sculptures without heads because faces are too accessible and would rather the viewer focused on the rest of the body. She feels that the pieces are communicative enough in their bodies and gestures, and don’t need heads to be complete.
