Prompt

REFERENCE IMAGE IS MANDATORY — USE THE UPLOADED REFERENCE IMAGE AS THE ONLY SOURCE OF IDENTITY. DO NOT CREATE A NEW PERSON. ABSOLUTE IDENTITY LOCK. Create a hyper-realistic conceptual portrait using the uploaded reference image as the ONLY source of facial identity. Preserve 100% of the woman's face shape, skull structure, forehead, hairline, hairstyle, hair color, eyebrows, eyes, eyelids, eye spacing, nose, nostrils, lips, mouth width, teeth, jawline, chin, cheekbones, ears, skin tone, skin texture, facial proportions, facial asymmetry, body proportions, age, ethnicity, freckles, pores, facial hair pattern and every unique facial characteristic. The generated woman MUST be instantly recognizable as the exact same individual from the uploaded reference image. 

DO NOT beautify the face, DO NOT stylize the face, DO NOT generate another person, DO NOT modify facial proportions, DO NOT slim the face, DO NOT enlarge the eyes, DO NOT change the nose, DO NOT change the lips, DO NOT smooth the skin, DO NOT change the hairstyle, DO NOT change the hair color, DO NOT alter skin tone, DO NOT change age, DO NOT change ethnicity, DO NOT reinterpret the identity. Identity preservation has the highest priority over artistic style, lighting or composition. 

Create a surreal conceptual portrait featuring an enormous hyper-realistic stone sculpture of the EXACT SAME WOMAN from the uploaded reference image. The giant bust dominates the composition, showing the exact same facial identity, expression and proportions as the reference image. The sculpture is carved from light gray marble with subtle weathering, realistic stone pores, fine cracks, chisel marks and sculptural texture while perfectly preserving every facial feature. A miniature version of the EXACT SAME WOMAN stands on a wooden scaffolding positioned in front of the statue, wearing an elegant black suit and holding a sculptor's hammer and chisel. The miniature woman appears to be carefully sculpting one eye of the giant stone portrait, creating the illusion that she is carving her own identity. The scaffolding is constructed from realistic metal poles and wooden platforms with authentic industrial details. Tiny stone dust particles float through the air around the sculpting area. The background is a clean pastel green gradient studio backdrop with soft cinematic lighting and shallow depth of field. The composition is perfectly centered, with the giant sculpture filling most of the frame while the miniature sculptor provides a dramatic sense of scale. Soft diffused studio lighting creates gentle shadows that emphasize the marble texture and facial contours without changing the woman's identity.
