Abstract copper sculpture with flowing organic forms and oxidized patina, set outdoors against a modern building and green foliage.

A highly detailed digital 3D rendering of the sculpture ‘RISE’ by Bumpei Akaji (1979), located outside the RISE building in Honolulu. The sculpture is made of metal with abstract, flowing organic forms, rough textured surfaces, and oxidized patina, reflecting Akaji’s modernist style influenced by Japanese aesthetics. Accurate proportions and perspective. Realistic metallic reflections and high-detail surface textures. Daytime lighting with natural shadows. Include a partial view of the RISE building and surrounding environment. Emphasize the sculpture’s balance, volume, and spatial presence. Historical context: created as a gift for Masaru ‘Pundy’ Yokouchi, reflecting post-WWII Hawaiian local artist influences, Akaji’s study in Italy, and his experience in the 442nd Regimental Combat Team.” See more
