Marlene Rose (b. 1967) Head of Buddha, 2004 Sand Cast Glass and Steel Sculpture
Located in Austin, TX
Marlene Rose’s “Buddha’s Head” is a harmonious fusion of ancient wisdom and contemporary craftsmanship. The artist’s mastery lies in her ability to distill profound spirituality into tangible form.
The sculpture portrays Buddha’s visage—a timeless symbol of enlightenment and compassion. The closed eyes evoke meditation, inviting viewers to explore their own inner landscapes. The serene expression transcends time, whispering secrets of inner tranquility.
The sand cast technique lends an organic texture to the sculpture. Each grain seems to hold whispers of ancient mantras, echoing across centuries. The pinkish hue, reminiscent of dawn’s first light, bathes the head in a gentle glow.
The ushnisha—the cranial bump atop Buddha’s head—symbolizes heightened consciousness. It’s as if the artist captured a moment of enlightenment frozen in time. The tight curls framing the face signify wisdom gained through introspection.
Mounted on a sleek cylindrical stand, the sculpture defies gravity. Its weightlessness mirrors the spiritual ascent—a journey from the mundane to the sublime. The dark background accentuates the head’s ethereal presence.
“Buddha’s Head” beckons viewers to seek solace within themselves. It whispers, “Find your inner temple, where silence blooms like lotus petals.”
