I love being surprised like that.
Yesterday we talked about art in the absolute figurative sense of the word. It was something imaginary, completely made up. But here there is art. In the true sense of the word. Also, semi-hidden. Here it is, between some residential buildings, near a boulevard, but a little further away.
I happened to walk past it. I was in a hurry. Still, I stopped. I was so surprised that there was no way I could not stop.
Let me tell you, shot like that in haste, without insight into the detail, without a thorough examination, this art probably doesn't tell you much. And yes, it needs to be looked at in detail and I wish I had time for that. Because, of course, I can't find out anything more, from the Internet or anywhere else. So many urban sculptures remain semi-nameless, unmarked, unappreciated. Especially those who stand a little further away.
Still, this sculpture, these figures woven into each other in such a peculiar way, is impressive. And I hope another day I will happen to pass by it again so that I can photograph it more thoroughly.
