Manhattan

2023

White Marble Carrara - 100x12x72cm

Manhattan is a celebration of discovery and the deep affection for a new home. Carved from luminous marble, this sculpture offers a detailed representation of the Brooklyn Bridge and the iconic Manhattan skyline as seen from the Brooklyn side of the East River. 

The piece captures the specific perspective of a California transplant, documenting the moment a newcomer falls in love with the urban landscape of New York. By rendering the soaring structure of the bridge and the dense geometry of the city in stone, the work transforms a fleeting, breathtaking view into a permanent, tactile memory.

It serves as a bridge between two coasts—a tribute to the journey from the Pacific to the Atlantic and the sense of belonging found in the shadow of the city's most famous architecture. The sculpture immortalizes the awe and inspiration of a new Brooklyn resident, turning a skyline of steel and glass into a lasting testament of home.
