Hi Kwee, It is wonderful to see what people can create from such items. Public art is so necessary.

Enjoy.

Kwee - What interesting sculptures! I can't decide which one I like best but I'm leaning toward the orange metal. If you are thinking of buying a home in Venice, call Kwee.

Kwee - sometimes I wonder where the inspiration comes from for this type of art form ..... we have a local Artist/Sculptor who has adorned his house and property with his concrete works and every year we tour his "studio" during the celebration of the arts.

Hi Kwee,

These photos are great and the people who made them are so creative. I think I like the patina steel the best but they are neat.

Thanks so much for sharing something so unusual. Have a great week.
