Iyere - nurturer Low-poly 3D model

This is a carved wooden sculpture of a standing female figure rendered in a stylized and elongated form. The woman is portrayed with a prominent pregnant belly, highlighting themes of fertility, motherhood, and life. Her pose is upright and elegant, with one leg slightly bent and both arms resting behind her back, creating a gentle sway in her posture.

The figure’s facial features are sharply defined, with a pronounced nose, full lips, and a thoughtful, upward gaze that lends a sense of contemplation or dignity. Her hair is intricately carved into long, twisted braids that fall to her chest, framing her face and emphasizing her cultural identity. She wears a necklace and earrings, subtle adornments that enhance her feminine form without overpowering the sculpture’s natural simplicity.

The base is multi-tiered and geometric, providing a stable platform that complements the verticality of the figure. The wood surface is smooth, with a dark, slightly weathered finish that gives it a timeless, grounded feel. Overall, the sculpture is expressive, honoring the strength, grace, and resilience of womanhood.
