GOD OF THE FOUR WINDS
An empty plain, scattered with giant, sculptured masks, swept up by an aerial force.
Four faces twisting and turning, personfications of the four winds (Geek "anemoi"):
boreas, the icy north wind
notus, the hot south wind, destroyer of crops
eurus, the unlucky east wind
zephyr, the messenger of spring and bringer of thunderstorms.

Inspired by greek drama masks aiming for non-anthropomorphic and non-animalistic, purely elemental.
Entry for Deviantart's RIFT - Create a Colossus Contest (2011), so rather cold.
A rather hurried image that hasn't aged well, but still a personal favourite after all these years.
