Broken Torso reimagines the traditional artistic theme of the female form, blending it with the raw, unrefined textures of aged wood. This sculpture is a dialogue between the human and the natural, the smooth and the rough, the refined and the fractured.

The structure of the work — the rough natural wood — symbolizes the foundation we are given at birth. It reminds us that our lives and identities are shaped by the circumstances we inherit. Here, the figure appears broken, split, and imperfect, yet through these “flaws” emerges profound beauty. The cracks and textures are not just scars; they are the story of resilience and transformation.

Broken Torso challenges the viewer to look beyond the surface. Even in what seems damaged, dirty, or incomplete, there is a deeper, hidden elegance waiting to be discovered. This sculpture is a testament to the human capacity to build something beautiful upon even the roughest of foundations.

Through its interplay of hard and soft, broken and whole, Broken Torso is a reminder that beauty can thrive even in the midst of imperfection.
