BIG HEADS, 2008-2020

Big Heads investigates embodiment, vulnerability, and psychological presence through exaggerated, archetypal forms. The series draws on the tension between monumentality and fragility, using scale to amplify emotional states rather than represent individual identity.
Realized as sculptural works and installation configurations, Big Heads occupies space through direct physical presence. The works confront the viewer at eye level or above, creating an encounter that is at once intimate and destabilizing.
The series represents a shift toward sculptural language as a primary vehicle for psychological exploration, reinforcing di Masternak’s interest in the body as a site of memory, projection, and collective recognition.
