A couple more views of Silica, Weston-super-Mare’s giant sperm mouldy carrot statement public art piece. I’m all in favor of public art and unusual, even challenging architecture/art. This doesn’t do it for me. It looks totally out of place, and it doesn’t appear to be well maintained. Maybe seeing it all lit up might make a difference, but I doubt it.

At least it is doing public service as a receptacle for lost shoes, footballs, and rugby balls.
