Street Art Sunday

Street Art Sunday #3
This statue is on the University of Calgary campus. It is one of six bronze figures holding up an enormous arch made of sheet metal of some kind. I have no idea what this enigmatic arch and the six bearers are meant to represent or even what the title is...I did try to find out but information was sadly lacking!
The androgynous figures are beautifully sculpted though.
On the day I was there, two young girls were enjoying clambering on them and then jumping off.

  6. Funny story about the girls climbing on the sculptures. I've noticed kids doing that too and wondered why their parents didn't stop them. Well, at least they were appreciating the art...I guess.

    This sculpture is very nice indeed!
