The Broken Obelisk

The Broken Obelisk is a striking sculpture by artist William Cochran, located at the University of California, San Diego. It features a tall, black obelisk with a large, triangular section missing, giving it a sense of incompleteness. The design symbolizes strength, resilience, and the idea that even broken or incomplete things can be powerful and meaningful. Its abstract form invites viewers to interpret its significance personally, blending symbolism with modern art. The sculpture's bold lines and minimalist style make it a thought-provoking centerpiece that encourages reflection on imperfection and growth.
