A sculptural portrait for the wall.
TopoFace™ reimagines portraiture as layered relief:
a face interpreted as a topographic landscape,
where contour, depth, and shadow form a living surface.

Each portrait begins with a photograph
and becomes a one-of-one wall sculpture made to order.

How the Portrait is Formed
The process combines digital precision and tactile finishing:
relief modeling of facial topography
multi-layer 3D fabrication in silk-finish polymer
hand refinement of surfaces and edges
acrylic finishing to enhance depth
final assembly on archival wood panel
Every element is intentional, designed for permanence and clarity.
For Wall Display
TopoFace™ portraits are conceived specifically for architectural space.
The shallow relief offers sculptural presence
without occupying physical volume,
allowing the portrait to inhabit a wall elegantly and quietly.
