Yes, it is very much dead. Conifers can still show green parts after they are long gone.
It's almost impossible to see what type of plant this has been exactly, by the way, but I'm quite sure it wasn't a white cedar (Chamaecyparis thyoides).
Also:
If you are an artist and a sculptor, you know you need good material to work with.
You cannot make a sculpture from a twig. If you want to create bonsai, you will really need better material - or let it grow for many years.

The most common cause of death is people buying bad material, often nothing more than young cuttings, that's are of the type 'sell it before it dies'.
I cannot know though what killed your mallsai.
