The man from the sea

in WORLD OF XPILAR4 years ago (edited)

Standing on a mound and looking out over the big ocean

Farthest to the west, Bø In Vesterålen with the coastline to the North Atlantic, the sea man stands. A monumental piece of art , 4.30 m high , made of cast iron and crystal. in my opinion interesting and beautiful and deserve a place like this in the landscape.

Art as a part of the project Artscape Nordland.

Artist Kjell Erik Kili Olsen

Bø 1994

What is in the hand of the monument and what does it mean? the monument is awesome to watch be due to the surrounding environment and photography was excellent as well

Thank's so much @engrsayful for pleasant comment. In the hand a piece of crystal. I don't not know what it means, but you can interpret it the way you want.
