What Is This?

 Traveling thru the Bonneville Salt flats in northern Utah all of a sudden this appeared.

My first thought was that it was a camouflaged cell tower. Thinking about it later, I like so many others turned to the Internet. Seems it is a sculpture, donated by a Swedish artist In 1986. Standing 87 ft. high it is constructed of ceramic tiles, welding rods, and native minerals and rocks.

  1. What an unusual sculpture in a most unusual place.

  3. Dearest Janey,
    Wow, that would certainly be an object that would make you frown upon seeing it...
    Glad you figured out what it was and hard to believe it stands there already since 1986.
    Looks so desolate.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

  4. A strange place for a sculpture, who can admire it in that outback?
