SHORTCAKE

Pleasure, Play & Worth

Collection: Mind·Full·Ness® — Faces of Transformation

Product Description

Shortcake is an ode to sweetness without diminishment.

This mosaic face sculpture celebrates joy, pleasure, and delight—not as frivolous extras, but as essential expressions of worth. The layered textures and playful color remind us that seriousness is not a prerequisite for depth.

Shortcake exists to soften hardened spaces and to reintroduce delight where it has been forgotten.

Intention

For those rediscovering joy.

For those remembering that pleasure is not something to justify.

What You Receive

• One original Shortcake face sculpture
  A playful yet grounded epoxy sculpture created as a singular piece, reflecting pleasure, worth, and embodied joy.
• Story Transmission
  A written companion piece created specifically for this archetype, designed to be returned to over time rather than read once.

• Signed authenticity note
  Individually signed to acknowledge this work’s place within the Mind·Full·Ness® — Faces of Transformation Codex.

Joy is not a reward.
It is a right.

When a piece finds you, it is because something in you is ready to be honored.

About the Original Works

Each face sculpture within Mind·Full·Ness® — Faces of Transformation is created as a singular, one-of-a-kind work. These pieces are not reproduced, cast, or editioned. Once completed, the form exists only as itself.

The faces are hand-formed and finished by Courtney Nichelle Coble, allowing subtle variation, texture, and presence to emerge naturally through the making process. Rather than aiming for uniformity, the work honors individuality — both in the material and in the archetypal expressions each face carries.

While the collection shares a visual and conceptual language, no two sculptures are alike. Each holds its own energetic tone, intention, and relationship to space.

Original works are offered as standalone pieces, accompanied by a title and intention card and a signed authenticity note, acknowledging their place within the Faces of Transformation body of work. These elements serve not as explanations, but as quiet anchors — extending the experience beyond the object itself.

The sculptures are designed to live with you. They are not meant to be decoded quickly or understood all at once. Over time, collectors may notice shifts in how a piece is perceived — responding differently as circumstances, environments, and inner landscapes change.

Original works within this collection are distinct from the Mind·Full·Ness® Codex print editions, which are offered separately as accessible visual companions. The sculptures remain singular expressions within the broader ecosystem of the work.

Each original work is offered with the understanding that presence, not perfection, is what gives it life.
