Figurine

Cleveland Museum of Art

The figurine, created by Annette Messager, is a small, standing figure made of light-colored material. The figure's body is roughly shaped like a human with a large head and no distinct arms or hands. The entire figure, including the face, is adorned with numerous small circular depressions, often with a smaller circle inside. The face features two small circular depressions for eyes, a line for the nose, and a mouth, all surrounded by a border of the same circular depressions. The figure's body displays a pattern of these circular depressions, varying in grouping. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
