Truth is Beauty, is a 55-foot (17 m) sculpture by Marco Cochrane. The sculpture is lit from the inside by more than 3,000 LED lights.[1] It is part of a series of three large-scale steel sculptures of nude women by Cochrane, Bliss Dance (2010), Truth is Beauty (2013) and R-Evolution (2015). It was first exhibited at the 2013 Burning Man,[2] then the Las Vegas Strip,[3] and is now at permanent display at the San Leandro Tech Campus in California.[1]
