A striking sculptural piece featuring a mask-like form with a smooth, turquoise-blue surface contrasting against textured, oxidized bronze elements. The sculpture appears to be a head with twisted, horn-like protrusions emerging from the top, creating a dramatic silhouette. The surface treatment varies between polished, metallic areas and rough, weathered textures that suggest decay or corrosion. The lower portion of the piece features intricate, organic patterns that wrap around like a scarf or collar. The composition creates an interesting interplay between beauty and deterioration, reflecting the "trash heap survival" theme suggested in the title. The piece sits on a white surface, casting subtle shadows that emphasize its three-dimensional form.
