The work features an expressive central face in brazed brass and bronze, surrounded by hundreds of individually radiating brass sun beams that create a dramatic architectural presence.

Bold, textural, and highly dimensional, the sculpture captures the spiritual modernist quality associated with Emaus work of the 1960s and 1970s. Its handmade construction, sculptural surface, and radiant form make it a striking statement piece for Mid-Century Modern, Brutalist, Mexican Modernist, or collected artisan interiors.
