Torso 2 Bronze Figurative Sculpture

This sculpted torso pares the human figure down to its most essential volumes, letting absence—the missing head, arms, and lower legs—speak as loudly as the remaining mass. A cool, oxidized patina and delicately scarred surface turn flesh into terrain, catching light in shallow ridges that feel both weathered and intimate, as if memory has been pressed into metal. The subtle contrapposto and forward lean create a quiet tension between vulnerability and monumentality, suggesting a body that endures even as identity is withheld. In its restraint, the work becomes less a portrait than a meditation on presence—how form can hold dignity, desire, and time without narrative certainty.
