True Love by Simon Chidharara, Opal Stone, Unique, 70cm high, 48cm wide,17cm deep, Male, Female, Man, Woman, Love sculpture, Kiss, Brown
This piece by Simon Chidharara stands as an intimate celebration of connection, carved with tenderness from warm brown Opal Stone. It presents a man and woman pressed closely together, their faces leaning into each other with quiet devotion. Their eyes remain gently closed, as if the world has fallen away and only their bond matters. Chidharara shapes their features with soft curves, allowing the stone’s natural polish to echo the smoothness of skin. The artist does not overload the piece with detail, instead, he pares it down to essential emotion.
The couple’s heads seem to merge at the cheeks and forehead, creating a single flowing form. This graceful fusion captures the idea that love can blur boundaries, yet still honour individuality. The woman’s face tilts slightly, and the man’s head responds, as though they breathe together. The subtle touch of their lips leans toward the suggestion of a kiss, but Chidharara chooses connection over drama, stillness over spectacle.
Opal Stone enriches the sculpture with earthy brown tones, bringing warmth and grounding to the theme of love. Its smooth finish reflects light softly, giving the figures a living glow. The sculpture feels deeply human, yet universal, speaking to affection, trust, and the quiet strength of partnership.
Rather than portraying romantic love as loud or overwhelming, True Love offers an intimate whisper, two souls finding comfort in closeness, choosing to rest in each other, and letting that simple act speak volumes.
