whoooaaa good share that is very cool

yes, cool. but is it just me or is this kinda ugly?

ugly isn't near the top of the list of things I think about when looking at that statue, but I will say that similar sculptures and paintings in Middle Eastern language are far more pleasing to look at because Western alphabets are so blocky and rigid.

whereas i can look at paintings of Arabic letters all day:

this is indeed very aesthetically pleasing

thanks for sharing!

for sure, I looked them up every now and then to see what's new, so thanks for giving me the opportunity to share.

Along with the "Utopia" display in the Meijer Gardens, Grand Rapids, Michigan, there is a sculpture downtown.
