Sol is a quietly powerful work from Kim Rose, created in tribute to her mother, Marisol. Her name breaks down to Mar (sea) and Sol (sun) — two forces that feel opposite, yet beautifully balanced. This piece is the deep, cool sea embraced by the warmth of the sun.

There’s a quiet reverence in the work, an emotional presence that moves beyond representation. The gold feels spiritual — almost like working with light itself. "It melts time," Rose says. "It radiates like the sun."

What remains is a surface that shifts and glows — reflective, intimate, and enduring.
