Naked Soul is a tall minimalist bronze sculpture depicting a man in contemplation. His head is gently bent forward gazing down at his hands; is he giving or receiving? Darkness fades to Life as the black patina turns green, enhancing the core meaning of this simple loving gesture. He reminds us that love disarms the heart and disrobes it down to the core. Truly naked; to undress the heart, uncovering the truth resonating within the soul.
