This is a sculpture that I've recently been working on. I was thinking about how God continuously pulls out the crap in our lives and helps us to be more like him. I was visualizing the crap that we fill ourselves with as a root growing inside of us trying to suck the life wherever it can and how God grabs hold of that root and yanks it out.

I absolutely love your sculpture and am moved by it. The crude, worn, helplessness on the choking face is great. The image stamps the gravity of our condition in my head. I love how it also looks far from pleasant for it to stay there and even more painful to have it removed. It such a vivid vision of the required brutality, and the all out crudeness of sanctification. It lays us bare to face the unpleasant but glorious work that God has set forth in us. Idea of it being rooted in us and that in pulling out it must tear out small part it tear small parts around it leaving us wounded and needing mending.
I love this sculpture. Glad you explained it, though, heh.
wow, that's so crazy awesome, this was the one you were telling me about right? for some reason i thought it was a painting, this is 10x cooler than what i was picturing
