One of the side effects that I haven't seen many people mention is what this statue is getting viewers to do.
When I visited it, I watched a lot of people approach it from afar with a confused look, since it looks weird from some angles. Once they got closer and it started to make sense, they seemed to enjoy it more. It was literally bringing strangers together in a co-located spot by being a confusing object. Kind of like the shiny Chicago bean.
I also noticed families and friends trying to hug each other in the same way the statue was. Don't know if that was intended, but if a statue gets people to hug more then it's good in my book.

This is cool! I'm curious on what steps you got left in your artistic process?

No I wanted to comment the same thing on both posts. No need to drool over your keyboard. Trust me homie, if I got 10m for a sculpture I wouldn't be on Reddit.
