Water's Soul, Public art sculpture in Newport, United States
The Water's Soul sculpture depicts a white figure with closed eyes and a finger pressed to its lips, standing 80 feet tall beside the Hudson River.
The installation arrived from Barcelona in 23 shipping containers and was assembled on a former industrial pier before its inauguration in October 2021.
Artist Jaume Plensa incorporated water symbolism into the design, representing the connection between individual people and their capacity to form powerful communities.
The sculpture stands at 1 Park Lane South in Jersey City, accessible through PATH trains, ferries, light rail, and features a landscaped walkway along the Hudson River.
The white polyester resin, fiberglass, and marble dust construction creates a stark contrast against the Manhattan skyline across the Hudson River.
