What possessed them to build a giant little girl with a bear...
strange...its named "Maddie" and shes 6...how and why do you know this?



the illusion of the bear standing up is gone when you see the pole sticking out of its left leg heh.

also, nobody will graffiti this.
LOL her name's Maddie. And she's young. And alone. And not moving (dead). And made/molested by a man.

It's in the city images thread - its an image of the city. Not everyone will like it, some will smirk and call it kitsche - but people also said the same about the work of Roy Lichtenstein. At the end of the day, its pop art, not a Monet or Van Gough.

Like it, don't like it, it's up to you. However it is imposing and tends to gather opinions.
Many drunks hang around there? It will be a new public toilet if there is.
The kids will love it. The artworks look cute. The whole emphasis is on making the park family friendly so I am not surprised by their choice of art.
it's obviously a shrine or monument to pedobear. The Gold Coast is commending his hard work.
Now if only Newcastle could do the same for Alf Stewart.
I kinda like it... it's a bit weird, but kinda cool. Would freak you the **** out if ever you stumbled past on 'shrooms or acid.
