Face Under Construction (2026, New York) is a wide, exaggerated grin stretches across a face that cannot quite hold one identity at a time. One eye stays steady while the other slips into a side-profile extension, marked by a bold arrow, like a command to look away, move on, redirect. Across the forehead, blocky, industrial shapes read like a clipped skyline or machinery, turning the head into a site under construction. The drawing feels playful at first glance, but the cues of signage and structure make the smile register as a mask, performed, directional, and slightly uneasy.
