This is an art piece that was on display at the International Triennale of Contemporary Art in Yokohama 2005. It was given to Yokohama for display in Yamashita Park. I wanted to go to the art exhibit in 2005 but when I found out the admission price, I gave up. This was the piece that I wanted to see most.....and what do you know, I get to see it for free!
