High chromium stainless steel with transparent color coating – so obvious, isn’t it? ;)
This installation by renowned American artist Jeff Koons is totally blowing my mind right now. Let me tell ya, my idea maker is a bit overworked at the moment, but it can still appreciate all this color and beauty.
It almost seems like an optical illusion, no? I keep wondering if the sculpture is transparent of it’s reflecting the surrounding buildings. For cities in need of color (paging Vancouver!), these type of structures can come in handy and could transform a boring city square into an artsy, bright-hued oasis.
PS. You should check the rest of Mr. Koons’ portfolio, it’s full of delightful quirkiness!
